Me thinks your the one that's sassy.
Just curious... who do you think is not "lite" or solidly "in the tent"?
Regarding Areths's tone or stridency... Cant argue with what someone likes or dislikes. Just guessing you don't like live blue's and would also guess Etta James is off the menu? Sounds like you wouldn't like trumpets and saxophones as well?
One persons sassy is another persons soul. Nothing wrong with that. Not to get too deep here but great artists convey emotions. And Aretha does that like few others. So, I find it interesting to hear someone with so much to say emotionally in a jazz context where maybe a lot of artists are
known to offer up a compromised plate of what the audience "in the tent" wants to hear.
