March 25, 200619 yr ooh just thought...barbara lynn. wonder how many of those who acclaim aretha as the queen of soul know of linda jones, who's leading at the moment? I'd say Linda Jones is leading so far. But a poll with the ones already mentioned on it would sort it out I guess. Over to you Mr. Collins.
