Aretha Franklin has passed.  May she be remembered for all the good she shared with the world.

 

Hi Dada-da,

 

Let us now pay her our respect...

 

 

She has earned her RESPECT... and is now Home.

I have a nice collection of Aretha's music.  I mixed it with music from Wilson Pickett.  Two singers of the same breed.

I mixed James' music that I have with other Ladies of Soul.  More mellow than Aretha in order to contrast Male/female.

 

And a side note:  I was stationed at Fort Gordon, Augusta, Georgia when James Brown would come out of the piney woods just north of Augusta to perform on the weekends before he became popular.  Sad that I can't remember if I ever saw him.  I did have a buddy (Black man) who took me with him to the Black clubs to listen to the new sounds of Soul.

Don't be sad - good people withstand the test of time.

There were/are always there for me and you and Boo...
