So long Aretha; you both demanded and deserved respect and respect to got. God speed to your new destination; you will be missed.

She had more talent than all the modern R&B divas combined.

That could be because R&B is now just a component of rap/scratch/hip-hop/techno?

Sorry to see Aretha Franklin go because she was around for all my life. My days are numbered too but
there will be no 'new destination' for me.....why would there be?

Great tribute, Lyle, as usual.

Super tribute - what an influence, and not just musical, over so many decades - and she will continue to make her presence felt in the generations to come.
