So long, Odetta…
2008 December 3
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…
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
