This one makes me particularly sad. She had such a beautiful voice and smile. Rest in peace, Roberta, and thanks for all the memories,

Kind of a generic voice and arrangements, but always listenable. May she rest in piece.

The girl I was dating at the time that the song came out, absolutely loved that song. Here’s looking at you kid.

back in the day, we saw them - Flack & Hathaway as the opening act for George Carlin.
they should have headlined their own show...

“Where is the love” with Donny Hathaway was my favorite of hers. Rest in peace, dear lady.

Saw her in '89 at the Palace in Stamford, CT - she sat at a grand piano and belted out songs. What a beautiful voice.

Richie Havens opened for her - it was a nice contrast in styles.

I always loved her song “Ballad of the Sad Young Men”.
Give a listen...
