I sent a letter to the President in 2012 requesting that this lady- my favorite song stylist be acknowledged with receipt of a Kennedy Honor. I am disappointed that did not happen. There is just something so special about Nancy Wilson. I have loved her music from the time I used to sing along to my Dad's records and I then started to collect as much of her music as I could get my hands on. As Nancy used to sing in a song lyric "There will never be another you" Nancy. We will miss you.

I was 17 in 1965. No one in my high school even knew about Nancy Wilson. I was captivated with her and the song, “You Can Have him I don’t want him, “ He’s not the man for me.” Powerful ideas for a young women. I don’t get the rhythm of jazz but back then it was the melody of a story in song. In college I found other admirers of her music.. thank you Nancy you are beautiful to me.

My uncle Rusty Bryant gave Ms Wilson her start back in the day. She and my mother sang with his orchestra a lot before his career got started. My mother was Barbara McCarroll. He once told the story of Ms Wilson wanting to go with his band to California, but there wasn’t any room in the van with all of the equipment. She was upset. About half way through the trip they kept hearing noises in the back of the van. He pulled over to see what it was and discovered that Nancy had hid behind the drums. So they had to take her with them. The rest is history.

I'm sure your talented mom is singing the greats with Nancy. If your Uncle Rusty is up there with them, I'm sure he's making sure they have the best accompaniment in heaven, and they would all want you to share their stories with all of us.

@@cynthiagoldstein1133 Thank you a lot. I appreciate that. My uncle Rusty told that story to a crowd at the Lincoln theater in Columbus Ohio. We were playing at a tribute we put together for him a few months before he passed. Ms Wilson reached out to his sister, my grandmother after he passed to express her condolences. I wanted to hear Ms Wilson’s version of the story but didn’t get the opportunity before she passed some years later. It would have been nice to hear either one of them recounting the story on tape. His music is everywhere but we have no actual footage of him. I’d love to find anything on video of him. But again, thank you for your kind words

The Black community. Plain & simple. It's the same reason why within the Black community, Tina Turner & Whitney Houston weren't as celebrated as they should've been. If it wasn't for their White & Asian fan bases...they would've been screwed. Michael Jackson as well, especially after his Off the Wall album. Black people didn't support his Pop career in droves. Deniece Williams was canceled by the Black community after doing the lead song on the 'Footloose' soundtrack (Let's Hear It For The Boy). They felt like she abandoned her R&B fans to go Pop. That was the only Pop song she did. Whitney did more R&B songs the older she got. She definitely received no love from Black folks during the height of her career (Pop music).

It hit me like a ton of bricks fell on my head when I read the news. It was like a close loved one slipped away without saying goodbye. I tried to cry, but my eyes would only moisten. All day I kept thinking about her and the first time I heard her record in the summer of 1963. I was in my very early teens. I never desired to be a singer but her classy poise was a great impact on me. I wonder if she had any idea how many of us young ladies she was a mentor to.
