Ruth Brown - R.I.P.

I have just been informed that Ruth Brown passed away. She had been on life support for the last two-weeks.


For those that might not know who she was:

Atlantic Records was The House that Ruth Built! Between 1949 and 1955 she was on the R&B charts for 149 weeks.


If you're a fan of any musician/group from Atlantic Records; you can thank Ruth for making it possible for Atlantic to record them. Without her record sales, Atlantic would have probably ended up closing their doors.





Ruth Brown

January 30, 1928 - November 17, 2006



R.I.P.
