RIP.
 Was a shock to me, didn't know she had been ill and hadn't been performing for a year. Now the Gods will dance to the tune of Chain Chain Chain.

What a voice!! So many people influenced by her in so many ways; even Peter Gabriel and Roger Chapman expressed their admiration and attempts as young men to emulate that soulful, funky and deeply expressive sound. Her influence, politically, just cannot be underestimated.. RIP Aretha
