    Another link to the music which provided the background to growing up in the 1960s gone.

    Some female on BBC said she first burst in the Tamla Motown scene in the 1960s. Who comes up with this stuff?

    As a big gospel fan here she is singing my favourite gospel song.

    There was some lass from Hull in a newspaper comments section saying they had never heard of her.

    Yes. Clueless idiot. Thoughnit takes an exceptionally thick type to be not aware of someone of the stature of Aretha Franklin.
    It is also the anniversary of Elvis Presley's death. Wonder if the lass from Hull has heard of him?
