      Mr. Hopps, you are one of my all time favorites. Heard you live w/ Music Incorporated ( I was THERE when "Live at Slug's was recorded) and w/ Pharoah Sanders. Have often wondered if and where you have played since Hope you are alive and well, God bless.

    Saw RRK open for Santana at Fillmore East. When he played this had never heard of him, or jazz. I DID. See Warwick sing this 2 years prior w my parents in Florida. What a difference... began listening to him and jazz- never turned back. Bless the soul of Bill Graham and the temple of the Fillmore. Rip RRK.

      I think it's a great composition (Burt Bacharach and Hal David). I enjoy listening to performances/recordings by Dionne Warwick, Aretha Franklin and RRK. All depends upon my mood at the moment. Sometimes I have a taste for thin crust, sometimes deep dish 😁

      Kirk had a major stroke which led to paralysis of one side of his body in 1975. He kept performing after that (I saw him before the stroke and after at The Jazz Workshop in Boston, while I was a college student). He died in 77. I don’t think he was even 45. My friend was a musical prodigy who introduced me to the man himself. I was in awe. One night? Rahsaan had a pre-teen female drummer from Roxbury sit in - Terri Lynn Carrington!
