[@mauricekrack8246]

So deeply human ! As if a powerful voice full of strong emotions managed to transcend the years during which she had remained silent for multiple good priority reasons that deprived her of her life, putting her in the backgroundjust for a moment, time to settle everything and get back to his passion !!

[@dieseldog00]

She had me in tears from her audition to her final song. Very few singers have done that to me. I know at least one of those songs she sang for her late husband. Tom knows a great voice when he hears one that's for sure. Sally your sons were so proud of you and I very much hope you're back on the stage now.

Because, as you stated, it's a "business". All about the bottom line. It's also all about image nowadays. They probably thought her image wasn't marketable, despite the FACT she can literally sing her ass off.

For at least the past 35 years, my most favorite, emotional, inspirational, listened-to song has been 'Another Train'. I pulled it from an anthology because the haunting voice of the singer, unknown to me, Sally Barker, wouldn't leave my head. I never thought I'd ever hear from that voice again. It's hard not to sound overly dramatic trying to say what is true, but I wish I could thank her for the many many times that song rescued me over my lifetime.
