Featured RIP Roberta Flack, at 88.

Her voice was stilled...her songs will live long an' long.

 

RIP-Roberta with Donny Hathaway was heavenly too. I wonder if she was still doing any limited gigging ?
I think Frankie Laine & Tony Bennett were in their early 90's.Dionne Warwick's 84.

 

a true artist !!
RIP

 

Back when music was great... RIP

 

Roberta was diagnosed with ALS a few years ago, an' could no longer sing, Bosko.

 

That song blew me away when I was a teen. Great voice. RIP Roberta.

 

She was one of the greats. RIP.

 

Man. This is a two glass of wine night. I think I was 8 when "The first time ever I saw your face" came out. I loved it. And yes, I do think it was recorded after the loss of her beloved cat.

 

Very sad. She had a fabulous and memorable voice.

 

i only learned recently the genesis of killing me softly was a poem written during a don mclean performance

a mighty tribute to the man
