Ms Phoebe Snow balladeer extraordinaire died today at the tender age of 58. Her soulful voice and spirit drenched lyrics provide the backdrop for many a Two Fisted Love--I speak from experience.
Her song Poetry Man is an iconic ballad that along with Marvin Gaye's What's Going On capture the feel of the 70s for me. Her music takes me back to my afro, power to the people days.
Phoebe, talk to me some more. I wish you didn't have to go. She was the poetry woman, and she made everything alright.
Peace my beautiful sister.
