Boy does she still have it

At first, I wasn't crazy about the new, somewhat glitzier production. But they won me back over with the Cicely Tyson tribute and, yes, Aretha blew the ceiling off the hall. But even better was Carole King's reaction, as well as Cicely Tyson's reaction to "Blessed Assurance." Those are the kinds of things I watch this show to see.
