Years ago I was working at Sunset Akron, and in comes Miss Horne wearing jeans and a sweatshirt, no makeup,she was one of the prettiest ladies i've seen, and the sweetest. She was so down to earth and talked to everyone like she knew them. What a treat for me. R.I.P beautiful lady.
Maybe if Alicia Keys did a film on the life of Ms Lena a hold different generation would be able to share in the greatness of OUR National Treasure, and give the youngsters a clue about how to do 'The Damn Thang' YOU THINK?!
Lena was up there with Sarah Vaughn, Dinah Washington, Billie Holiday and many others. Each performer had their own styles, but all had incredible voices. Lena did a TV special when she was 82 and it showed her in a recording studio. She kept her voice until then! Her beauty stayed with her. She will be greatly missed.
RIP LENA !!!!! A standard for all of Hollywood to follow! Beautiful lady witha beautiful heart! She maintained her dignigty despite what she had to endure as a woman of color.
oh god, so gorgeous, refined, hilarious, entertaining, classy... its an overdone saying, but they truly don't make 'em like that anymore.... rest in peace miz lena, you deserve it.
Our young pop stars of today including Houston and Carey could learn something awe inspiring from this true diva who maintains this high quality in her voice and performance.
Well,this swinging tune also opens the album WE´LL BE TOGETHER AGAIN,released one year before this wonderful event.I could sum up Lena Horne in one single word:MAGICAL!
Lena's performances of "I've Got the World On a String" and "Yesterday When I Was Young" from that same Supper Club show are also worth checking out... Hope to see them posted sometime.

She's just one of the greatest ever. I regret never being able to see her perform live. But what we have recorded for posterity is sheer brilliance!
