Hello, kiddies.
My wife just delivered the news.
Odetta Holmes
31 December 1930-3 December 2008
Remember the legend with this timeless performance of “Water Boy”.
…and of course, this Funk classic, “Hit Or Miss”.
Rest in peace…

My pledge to you
Fufu Stew is a not-for-profit venture, made possible with the help of many and the inspiration of a select few. I am doing it for the love, your positive feedback and acceptance is worth far more to me than a few dollars. Files will be made available for your consumption until normal issues (bandwith, legalities, etc.)warrant otherwise. Thank you for choosing Fufu Stew.
Disclamer
As with any blog of this nature, it is well advised to say that any file posted here is done to educate those who may wish to listen. Since most of the artists and songs represented here have been overlooked or just forgotten over time, a little respect wouldn’t hurt.
If you like what you hear, please go to your local mom and pop record shop or your favourite website and inquire since corporate record stores just don’t care about us anymore. However, if you are one of those legal types who object to a file posted here, a comment will remedy the problem quickly since I don’t have the time or the resources to fight you in court.
Any image other than my own used in this blog is done specifically for promotion purposes and is not intended to skimp on originality. If there are any objections to my using an image, a quick comment will remedy the situation without hesitation. Any and all coments on these matters can be made by clicking the Disclaimer page.

I know she was really hoping to hold on until after inauguration….very sad…
…the one time I saw her play live she was ill as well…goodness knows why she chose to appear anyways, but a wonderful and moving performance.
She may have passed away but I think I am in love. Thank you for posting about ‘er! Beautiful
