I mean Ike Turner is only known for his management techniques.
Whose that girl?

Oh Allen you beat me to it! Yes RIP Etta James, I LOVE the song, At Last. Brings back some sweet memories.
Allie, she could belt one out.
Damn it! And I KNEW this one for a change.

But yeah. Sad. May she rest in peace.
Impressive work, you two.
I thought it was the girl from Annie.
Hey Darcy--what happened to the nerd look?
Allen, yes she sure could could, what a voice, sultry, strong.
It's not Harpo Marx?

I can't really pull off the nerd look. ;-)
Sure you can. It just becomes naughty librarian.
Oh. :)
Hmmm. Yeah...Darcy in glasses and maybe a white blouse...pencil skirt...hair in a bun...
That works. I mean, for nerdiness. *kaff*
The name made me think she was a blackie.
Was she white or black?
