    Her "Re-Light My Fire" LP is an essential for vintage soul fans.


    RIP.

    Very sorry to hear this. I did not know she had passed. Her Re-Light My Fire album is essential listening. R.I.P.

    I remember FM radio in Ottawa, Canada playing Rhetta Hughes' "Light My Fire," single on heavy rotation play, on the record label owned by Bill Cosby, at the time. I clipped out the radio chart and sent it to Rhetta, and received a very nice thank you note. Her maiden album is uber rare and I was very happy to finally locate a copy some time back. Her death is a sad loss for all music lovers!

    Never heard of Rhetta before but I just listened to a couple of tracks and her voice reminds me a bit of Martha Reeves!



    Nice!

    RIP Rhetta.
