I loved this discussion. @IAMANITABAKER is my favorite artist. Some info for you and @Wesley_Morris Anita did two big arena tours that sold out the past few years. The last concert was 3 years ago. Fantastic shows. She said she had new music coming but then it hasn't appeared.

there are so many, but this is my song. from '93 — her cover of Van Morrison — and it still brings me to my knees. #CassandraWilson, please rest in the peace you gave us so unselfishly. now you're our angel "of the first degree" 🕊️ https://t.co/VoQE4X3q5T

new #podcast appearance: i had a beyond-beautiful time speaking with Rob about Sade https://t.co/JHTeMfDQhm

[rob harvilla @harvilla]

a huge honor to talk once again with @danamo about sade's glorious, volatile mixture of LOVE and AMBITION; read danyel's memoir, it's fantastic https://t.co/WMLBLV8GuQ

One of the most beautiful voices in jazz has been silenced. I have known Cassandra Wilson for over 40 years from her early days in New Orleans before we both journeyed to NY. A innovative and creative woman with great musical power. A heartbreaking loss.
