Listen to this song while cleaning up your house with a scarf on your head and nothing, but
A undershirt and jeans, you will be thinking of good times. My Views and opinions do not
Reflect anyone on here or the actual person that uploaded this song, so please don't get all
Offended and twisted and take it as offensive.

In 1977, she became spokesman for the American Cancer Society. In 1978, Riperton also received the American Cancer Society's Courage Award which was presented to her at the White House by President Jimmy Carter. She died at age 31 on July 12, 1979. This song Back Down Memory Lane was sung weeks before she died. RIP Minnie. We Love You.

In January 1976 Riperton was diagnosed with breast cancer and underwent a radical mastectomy.[2] By the time of diagnosis, the cancer had metastasized and she was given about six months to live. Despite the grim prognosis, she continued recording and touring. Riperton was one of the first celebrities to go public with her breast cancer diagnosis, but did not disclose that she was terminally ill.
