Moderators dtel Posted July 23, 2011 Moderators Share Posted July 23, 2011 Such a shame and loss. Yes it is, but not completely a surprise, she sure could sing, I thought she was older than that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJkizak Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 One of the puzzeling things in my mind is was it talent or was it drugs plus talent? JJK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebes Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 One of the puzzeling things in my mind is was it talent or was it drugs plus talent? JJK Oftentimes some of both. The really tragedy is that she was just getting started. In another decade with a mature voice her singing would have placed here in the lexicon of all time jazz greats, because that's where she would have ultimately ended up.

Thaddeus Smith Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 there's a point where I think it's acceptable for friends and family to cold-c*ck someone and drag them in for help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groomlakearea51 Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 [Y] and there's also a time to walk away and leave it alone before they irreversibly wreck the family. Cold? Cruel? Oh well... At some point in their heroin adled brain they either get it or they don't.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
