I was 19 and ended up singing background on a Roberta Flack session and Luther Vandross was singing with us. I was mentored by Roberta in the control room as she was showing me the recording console and isolated the various instruments on the record "You Are My Heaven" I love her spirit ❤

Pure and beautiful and, such a lament for the decline of adult popular music. Roberta remains above and beyond most...

For me Roberta Flack is The Best Singer of R&B and Soul and the Best songwriter musician I've ever heard

Vocal coach turned superstar. She's a teacher not just musician.

The dynamic duo Roberta Flack & Donny Hathaway sing about love like they know it all to well! Just listen to the first of their labor absolutely EXQUISITE!

My best friend, Peter Lewis , did the live sound engineering for Roberta in Japan during the later 90's. Peter was with Natalie Cole's "Unforgettable Tour" prior to joining Roberta in Japan. When she came to LA to perform & play at The Greek theater, I attended as Peter's guest and met Roberta after the concert back stage. I had played the same clubs in Washington DC in the summer of 1969 as she did...Mr Henry's in Georgetown and on Capitol Hill. She is as sweet as the sound of her delightfully engaging music.

Bravo Roberta Flack! One of my very best all time favorite female singers. Such a beautiful voice. Your voice brings me back to good memories and good feelings. Thank you.

She is amazing !!! First Take album with Ron Carter on bass...the best, and incredible live performance with a top band, with a class in extreme dynamics..

Every song was sung with great grace and temprament

BEFORE all the rest, there was Roberta Flack. CLASSY personified

素晴らしいですなぁ、私の青春時代を思い出して泣きましたｗ

This super star is amazing.such a beautiful voice Roberta flack

ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL AND REALLY REAL!

Poucas pessoas sabem, porém esta música tão linda foi oriunda de uma inspiração de uma jovem cantora desconhecida na época cujo nome se chama: LORI LIEBERMAN que após assistir a um show de seu cantor predileto... escreveu emocionada o que estava sentindo naquele momento, em um pedaço de papel; E criou com a ajuda de dois amigos a canção; E em 1971 a própria Lori cantou pela primeira vez! Mas claro que arrebentou na voz da cantora extraordinária Roberta Flack.

Incredible, the voicd, the interpretation, the arrengements.

The Legendary is Fabulous

LOVE this show.

The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face (La Première Fois Que J'ai Vu Ton Visage) The first time ever I saw your face La première fois que j'ai vu ton visage I thought the sun rose in your eyes J'ai pensé que le soleil se levait dans tes yeux And the moon and the stars were the gifts you gave Et la lune et les étoiles étaient les cadeaux que tu avais donnés To the dark and the empty skies my love A l'obscurité et aux cieux vides mon amour To the dark and the empty skies A l'obscurité et aux cieux vides The first time ever I kissed your mouth La première fois que j'ai embrassé tes lèvres I felt the earth turn in my hand J'ai senti la terre tourner dans ma main Like the trembling heart of a captive bird Comme le tremblement de coeur d'un oiseau captif That was there at my command my love C'était là à ma commande mon amour That was there at my command C'était là à ma commande The first time ever I lay with you La première fois que je me suis étendu avec toi And felt your heart beat close to mine Et senti ton battement de coeur près du mien I thought our joy would fill the earth J'ai pensé que notre joie remplirait la terre And would last 'till the end of time my love Et durerait jusqu'à la fin des temps mon amour And would last 'till the end of time Et durerait jusqu'à la fin des temps The first time ever I saw your face La première fois que j'ai vu ton visage Your face (x3) Ton visage (x3)

Where is the voice? Right here with Roberta Flack!

"killing me softly with his song" was written by lori lieberman, heavily influenced by don mclean's song "empty chairs"

矢沢永吉さんの曲をロバータ・フラックさんの国の言葉でカバーされた事に感動いたしました。ロサンゼルスのチャイナタウンの情景が浮かびました。
