ARETHA - No Need To Say More, but I, of course, will.
Aretha Franklin, 18 times GRAMMY winner, leaves no doubt with her performances why she was at the top of her profession. A legendary vocalist with career is spanning almost 60 years, died at 76 in 2018. She started her secular career at 18 and was touring until 2017. She did not look healthy at this concert from 2011. Overweight; just coming back from one of her frequent breaks, because of health issues, but her voice was still top notch. It did not matter what she was singing: Souls, R&B, Blues, rock, pop and of course gospel, she earned 'Respect'. This photo was taken during her 50 minutes encore after her regular concert. Opening night of Toronto Jazz Festival; Free tickets for first 15000 people; Of course; mayhem.
She was my favourite, fave of the black couple in the 'White House' and many citizens of the world regardless race or colour.
