    O/T RIP Roberta Flack

    Beginning to feel a bit like the grim reaper on here but couldn't really let this one pass. Last week it was a white, punk, male drummer and this week it's a beautiful, soulful, black female vocalist. Guess that says I have an eclectic choice in music.

    RIP Roberta

    Terrible end for a great singer. Never knew The First Time... was a McColl song.
    Johnny Cash delivered a killer version in his American Recordings swansong - as he did with a.lot of other standards.

    Her version of the McColl song is the standard by which all others are measured.

    Sad news.

    Probably one of the best songs written and sung.
