Roberta Flack's glad, sad ties to Beatles
On "Let It Be: Roberta Flack Sings the Beatles," the mellow-voiced songstress works her way through the Fab Four songbook, including such tunes as "The Long and Winding Road" and "We Can Work It Out."The album, out this week, features liner notes from Yoko Ono, John Lennon's widow. It seems that Flack lives in the Dakota, the New York co-op perhaps best known as the location where Lennon was killed."Yoko lives right across the hall from me," Flack tells the Huffington Post. "I had the privilege of knowing both her and John because we all moved in the same year. We've been neighbors all these years and had some wonderful, beautiful and interesting moments together. Also some very sad moments, of course."
