No need for pretentious bs and more tales of sex and drugs. Just a rare and remarkable voice surrounded by devoted musical relationships. The archival footage looks and sounds wonderful. Her thoughts on a dirty rotten business from early on are fascinating. She was something - no vanity. Crystal clear pipes that for youngsters should be a revelation. In the end, in English or Spanish - that voice knocks you back on your youthful heart.
