RIP.
"Chicago Song" is a family favorite and always brings fond memories.
I really love "Why Must We Wait Until Tonight?" and never understood why it wasn't a bigger hit for her. A great soulful vocal from Tina
An excellent summation of SA.
Unless every artist's set is 25 minutes how will they manage this in one day? Even on multiple stages...
Christine Wiltshire -- of Luther -- is the lead voice on Phreek's "Weekend" which is one of the greatest disco tracks of all time.

LET ME IN YOUR LIFE has Johnny Bristol producing one side and Webster Lewis on the other. On paper, that sounds like a magical collaboration but the album came up short on inspiration. "Without You...
Marlena was a very versatile vocalist. By the time I saw her live she had settled back into her persona as a jazz singer -- i.e. standards and scatting -- but it's surprising that her dance-oriented...
Sad news. Marlena had just been on my mind. I have all of her recordings and she was a favorite. I've seen her live a few times. Almost 20 years ago, I saw her at a club in downtown Manhattan that...
I think it is a rather flattering photo of an 83 year old man.

I want to look and sound just like that at 82. Darlene Love is marvelous.
This momentous occasion is featured in the "Renaissance" movie and it is a lovely tribute to the legacy and influence of Miss Ross. Preserved for posterity.
Precisely. Given her popularity and ubiquity, it is still jarring to receive the occasional reminders that she IS Black, a woman, over 40 and occupying a space in popular culture where some still do...
"Umm...what?!"

I have the original edition. I thought it was a good read. Anyone who gets the new version please report back if it's worth getting the revised version.
Glad to hear it. This is all I want or need to hear at this stage of her career. She looks wonderful and still seems to derive enjoyment from performing, more than 60 years later. I would see her...
Maybe Labelle with have a shot now.
It's a nice collection for younger/newer fans who are enthralled by vinyl. Vinyl sales generate more revenue, and costs more, so it makes sense that they'd try to provide some bonus with the vinyl...
This happened last year.
Lady Blackbird is the ONE! Not crazy about this song but I've seen her shows -- she sounds like Bettye Lavette and Tina Turner with a hint of Shirley Bassey. Fabulous!
I can't with y'all sometimes...
Ross' appearance at the show was a SURPRISE for Beyonce. During her Renaissance show her four background singers regularly perform the slow intro of "Love...
They don't know, they just talking...
Beyonce's wardrobe is mind-blowing. About 15 costume changes and almost NO repeats for the entire tour. That particular catsuit is dazzling and the only item...
Well...you said THAT! Nicely done.
The Beyonce Renaissance Show is the most spectacular, visually stunning concert I have ever witnessed -- in my 40 years as a regular concert-goer, having seen all your favs and mine. I've seen it...
It actually has some lovely vocals by Leslie. She is more restrained than on her other recordings which is good because she is a musical theater performer not really a recording artist. The track...
Steve Perry of Journey at no. 30 of 50?! This list has zero credibility.
