Roberta Flack started out as a little girl with big dreams and tremendous talent, whose life took unexpected turns. Those turns led to a prolific and storied music career, and whether you are a Baby Boomer, Gen X, or a Millennial, her songwriting and ballads have been a pivotal part of the soundtrack of our lives.
An ALS diagnosis later in life stilled Flack’s voice, and the memory of her dulcet tones is all that is left in the silence. On Monday, Roberta Flack died at the age of 88. More
I liked her work.
RIP
I see what you did there.
I too enjoyed her work. Requiescat in Pace Ms. Flack.
May the Lord have Mercy on her soul. I bought a .45 of that song when I was thirteen or so and listened to it over and over.
She had a beautiful voice. RIP
I saw her in concert at the University of Utah Special events center. It was an In the Round type venue which sold out, but so many people wanted to see her they opened up the seats that were behind the stage. Several times during the show,she turned her back and sang to those seats. We loved it and cheered ourselves horse. She was one of a kind.
