Geeselad Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 sad news indeed, probably one of the most sampled artists ever, acca's of her salsoul stuff were virtually the bedrock of early house music. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Harrogatesoul Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 (edited) Really sad to hear this.

Neil Rushton Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 (edited) Very sad news. She had one of the great voices, revered by Soul., Disco and House fans alike. Love her version of "All About The Papers'" . When I was running Network she rang up to complain that she had been sampled on a record we had released, I explained it was licenced from Salsoul and all legit ,but she was having none of it, and I got the full effect of THAT VOICE as really shouted. If I had taped her rant it would have been one of the great acapellas! She checked everything out with Salsoul and was fine afterwards. Will play "Dreamin;" at Radcliffe tomorrow night dedicated to her. All The Best, Neil. Edited March 25, 2011 by NeilRushton1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Guest WPaulVanDyk Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 Not been here in a while but what sad news for a great soul artist especially in the late 70's and 80's. Black Box did a great job with her sample on there track Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
