Aretha blows the roof off the Kennedy Center

If you haven't seen this, you should- a 73 year old Aretha Franklin crushing "Natural Woman" at the Kennedy Center Honors concert for Carole King. Modern-day posers like Taylor Swift will never be able to lay a glove on her. Audio quality could be better but watch it anyway- you'll be glad you did.

I was standing in front of my computer giving her the ovation.

Her voice hasn't aged at all, and yes, she blows away the youngsters of today  :thumb: :weights: :drums: :rock:

:notworthy:

Best,

Watched this on my home theater the other night when it was on TV......Aretha Franklin was outstanding!.....One of the few original performers from the 70's who remind us of why music is great!
