Remembering Etta’s friend Muhammad Ali, who passed 4 years ago this week. Here he chats with Etta James at the piano at the Kinshasa Hotel in Zaire in September 1974. James and other Black musicians were in the country to perform at the Zaire 74 music festival. The concert was organized as a promotional event to coincide with the heavyweight championship boxing match between Ali and George Foreman. 📷: Horst Faas #ettajames #mohammadali #rememberettajames - @ettajamesofficial on Instagram

Today in Black History: Otis Redding, one of the greatest American soul singers/songwriters, was born on this day in 1941 in Dawson, Georgia. Redding was raised in Macon, where he started singing at a young age and was influenced by musicians such as Sam Cooke and Little Richard. His breakthrough into soul music came when Redding drove to Memphis, Tennessee with Johnny Jenkins and the Pinetoppers for a recording session at Stax Records in 1962. The Stax co-owner Jim Stewart allowed Otis to cut a few songs at the end of the recording session. The result was “These Arms of Mine”, which released that same year and launched his career. This was the first of many hit singles (including “I’ve Been Loving You Too Long,” “Respect,” and “Try a Little Tenderness) and his open-throated, emotional style and powerful singing became the measure of the decades great soul artists. In December of 1967, Redding and four members of his band were killed when their chartered plane crashed into a Wisconsin lake. He was only 26 years old. Shortly before his death, he recorded his number one hit single “(Sittin’ On) The Dock of the Bay” which shot to the top of the charts. He was posthumously inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1989 and was awarded the Lifetime Achievement Award at the Grammy awards in 1999. 📷: KALW Local Public Radio #todayinblackhistory #blackhistoryisamericanhistory #sallieellisdavishouse #otisredding - @sallieedavis on Instagram

#tbt que o @centrodememoriacaciquederamos me presenteou nesta quinta-feira! ☺️ . . Sabemos que quem bateu essas fotografias não foi lá muito inspirado...No entanto, nem sempre o valor dos registros está na estética deles, mas sim no que eles documentam.As fotografias retratam o dia do depoimento de Bira Presidente para o acervo Depoimentos para a posteridade, do Museu da Imagem e do Som do Rio de Janeiro, em 2001. No início dos anos 2000, o falecido jornalista José Carlos Rêgo criou e conduziu a série Memória da dança do samba. Foram entrevistados passistas, dançarinos, coreógrafos, mestres-salas e porta-bandeiras, todos mestres nos variados estilos de dançar o samba carioca. O presidente do nosso Cacique foi um desses, e registrou além da sua vida, o seu jeito de sambar, como se vê nas duas primeiras fotografias. Na segunda ele está em companhia de homem não identificado, José Carlos Rêgo e o passista Vitamina (da esquerda para a direita); e na terceira, na mesa de entrevistas, com Lygia Santos, Rêgo, Nilcemar Nogueira e Haroldo Costa.
