Sad day indeed. I grew up listening and playing many of her wonderful tunes. A distinct, unique voice that was/is instantly identifiable. Such an influence in so many ways. RIP Aretha.

If anyone needed reminding of her superb musical abilities then see this:

The sound balance is ropey but it doesn't really matter at all.
As to the suggestion re naming the next REAPER release after her, that is of course a matter for the developers. But I was struck by a comment she makes in the video at 32.50:
"Come on and help me sing!"
