- Died: February 9, 1966, New York City, NY
My sister, Dee, recently said that I'd never stopped working, even though I retired... Well, here's Sophie in 1960 appearing on Ed Sullivan, just six years before she died... So I still got a long way to go, right?
I've picked out songs that are funny because that's what she's best known for; however, she did have a beautiful voice as well... Ok, maybe my singing has been limited to churcy things, but that counts, for an amateur...
Sophia was apparently quite content at whatever age she was, and washn't concerned about sharing her thoughts on the matter...LOL
You know I've talked about reading so much and not getting much exercise, but Sophie spoke up the real truth... She sure is My Kinda Woman...
She's famous for her Red Hot Mama songs... |
