Peter Friedman Posted June 20, 2018 Report Share Posted June 20, 2018 I saw Rebecca a couple of times over the years. She was a marvelous vocalist. A terrific voice,a fine style and a solid jazz feeling in her songs. Sad news, R.I.P. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
