The jazz legend died on Tuesday at her home in Manhattan having reportedly suffered from emphysema and heart disease.
A genre-changing singer and actress, who was born Annabelle Allan Short in 1930, she was also the sister of the late Jimmy Logan.
American jazz singer Curtis Stigers tweeted: “Rest In Cool, Annie Ross.”
Annie started out as a child star, billed as Scotland’s Shirley Temple, before becoming part of vocal trio Lambert, Hendricks and Ross.
