@crucial Amen. Aretha really was one of the legends.

[Crucial]

If there is an afterlife let’s hope Aretha has found Duane Allman and is cracking out this again...

[Chris B.]

@crucial Maybe a bit of backing from Levon Helm, Richard Manuel and Rick Danko.

[Chris B.]

This was a pretty amazing performance in her 70s!

[Bovidae]

Aretha died on the same day (Aug 16) as Elvis Presley.

I prefer that arrangement from the swampers myself. At least Rick Hall can produce.

[Chris B.]

@crucial Might still be waiting on a few of the backing band for that arrangement?

Yeah, three of the original four swampers still alive.

Those guys have lived an amazing life being the scenes, playing on everything from Pickett to Aretha, Stones to Paul Simon.

Elvis isn't dead. He is "missing".

Greg Boyed of TVNZ has died, apparently succumbed to the black dog. Very sad, so young
