Had the pleasure of hearing Roberta Flack perform a charity concert this weekend. She has knocked me out since the early 70s. Here's my cell phone quality photo: The guy on the right is the jazz reed virtuoso Arturo Tappin. Also in her band, Ralph MacDonald (who plays in Jimmy Buffet's band), guitarist David Spinozza, and Buddy Williams on drums. Dennis Collins joined in on a few tunes, and sang his...
When thinking about better presentations it is essential to match the style of the presentation to the style of the performer. The clips below show this principle being applied to a great song "The first time ever I saw your face" by Ewan McColl. Roberta Flack has produced perhaps the best known version, with a wide range of notes and...
Last week's 50th anniversary bashes for Ben's Chili Bowl were a blast. From Bill Cosby's on-stage quips about the verve with which the servers at Ben's whap the chili onto the half-smoke, to Roberta Flack's still-distinctive stylings, to a gathering of the District's political elite in a tent behind the Lincoln Theater, Ben and Virginia Ali demonstrated yet again that their hot dog stand on U Street...

This album is quite comparable to the other
The first time I ever heard this song was on the radio in my apartment right after breaking up with someone I loved very dearly. Rather, she broke up with me. She was Chinese and her family did not approve of her marrying a white boy. Hearing Roberta Flack's lovely words was like a knife in the heart, as they described exactly how I felt about my former love and lover. The emotion was intensely sweet...
“Cougars 4 Cook.” There it was, on a poster in the “American Idol” audience last week, after David Cook belted Roberta Flack’s “The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face” in the key of emo. And that slogan, not to mention the woman who hoisted it, speaks to the 25-year-old singer’s popularity with, ahem, women of a certain age.
