Pretty bad...RiP Patti LaBelle
She really had an unbelievable and pure voice. Technically too she was amazing. There are some early songs I recently heard in the early-mid 60s (before Respect) when she first signed with Columbia Records. Stunning. Some of those faster, energetic ones with crazy and high leaps. Pure.
She had a powerful voice. A unique style, but what always grabbed me was the way she would phrase the lyrics. She gave them nuance and feeling.
