Aretha Franklin Has Passed Away

RIP the queen of soul. Much *ahem* ... Respect.
 

Mr. Daystar

In a bell tower, watching you through cross hairs.
Damn shame. I thought she was the perfect pissed off old lady, in "The Blues Brothers". Voices like hers rarely come around.

A rare gem these days, music has lost another true master.

Rest in peace, Aretha.

I once watched her perform, loved every moment

I missed seeing her twice. The first time was in Coney Island for a free show. I've told that story before. The second time was last year. She was playing at the Bardivon. A 5 minute walk from my house. Tickets were $450 GA. With that came a 2 block walk from the theater to the hotel for her after show party. I didn't have that kind of money. But I did walk to the hotel. She walked with that crowd through those front doors.

I just found out that Matt "Guitar" Murphy has also passed away. Exactly two months separating them. Mr. Murphy on June 16, 2018. Ms. Franklin on August 16, 2018.
