Just sublime
I'd have to say I don't have huge familiarity with her work outside of the Blues Brothers and the hits ( Say a Little Prayer,etc) but I suspect that's my loss. I may end up being one of those people who buys a Greatest Hits in Tesco after the death of a much loved artist. Just reading some of her wikipedia and certainly a full life ( pregnant at 12!) so perhaps to sing soul you do have to have lived a little. For all my ignorance obviously a truly great talent.
RIP
Many great tracks to listen to but I love this version from 2015 - it still shows that she can deliver the goods in her later life - Plus it made Obama cry
Listened to I Never Loved a Man... last night. Such an amazing voice.
Sad day. RIP.
I can't help about the shape I'm in, I can't sing I ain't pretty and my legs are thin
But don't ask me what I think of you, I might not give the answer that you want me to

Plus of course what it represents to black America, and the fight they all went through - The whole social history is a part of it as well
We'll never see such a person again with such a story to tell
surely a public holiday in the USA on the day of her funeral
RIP Lovely Lady!
