Default Aretha Franklin
Today is a very sad day. Aretha Franklin has passed away at the age of 76. Known as "The Queen of Soul" her greatness transcends all music.

Aretha, thank you for all of the great music over the years, rest in peace.

Her obituary from the NY Times

I'll always remember this version of think.
So much so in fact that when I thought of Aretha,
I couldn't believe she was that old. and then it finally dawned on me just how old this movie is. almost 40 years.
