Aretha Gone, Not Her Many Great Contributions

A true great and magnificent talent and entertainer, Aretha Franklin died on August 16th at the age of 76.

Her magnificent voice which resonated on such smash hits as “Respect” and “Natural Woman” was one for the ages.

Ms. Franklin’s songs inspired during the Civil Rights Movement and resonate this day and always.

I highly recommend the work “Aretha Live at The Fillmore West” (in San Francisco), as an example of music that is transcendental.

Her work and voice lives on, bye Aretha!
