Met her at Blackpool weekend a few years back. Such a lovely lady. Rest in peace Ann. 

Another sad loss 😢

Lucky enough to have seen her twice, The Wilton where she was just fantastic and again 18 months or so ago in Bilbao, again just brilliant despite the advancing years.

R.I.P. and thank you for the music. 

 

Oh no more awful news. YBGTL was one of my favourite's when I started out.

Seeing her perform it live @ Baltic Soul w/ender 30+ years later was goose pimple time.

Of course not just a 1 song artist her Sound Stage 7 LPs essential Soul music.

Lost For Words at this point trying to take it all in, so many Heroes (musically) and so many Friends (Socially)

that we have amassed over the years on this wonderful Musical Ride of ours and here we are again having to come to the terms of another *Much loved One Lost*     So, So Sad.

* RIP Mary Ann Sexton * Condolences To All Your Family and Close Friends.

*Thank You For The Music With Which You Inspired Us All* 

I totally agree.  My 1st niter as a 15 year old was 1980, I'm now 60 and all my peers and artists are a lot older and of course we will lose them, it's so so sad and painful 😒  but it is what life is 😪😪  

But the most important thing is that we have lived and danced that music and we will remember it always and take it to our own graves. Sadly I know but truthful x x 

Very sad news. I’ve only got to hear ‘You’ve Been Gone Too Long’ to be transported back to The Casino. The first time I heard Ann’s masterpiece, I was going from the main room balcony into Mr M’s…just blew me away. Such a great song…

Another sad loss. Condolences to Ann's family and friends 

The image provides her correct name (Mary Ann)_and date of birth (1947), not 1950 as often seen on other websites.  Despite living in The Bronx for decades, she may have never performed in NYC.

A brilliant artist. "The Beginning" LP is simply fantastic. As were so many of her other records.

RI.P. Ann..

Another Upsetting Loss. My Condolences 🕊️
