How could you pass up a night with a soul and R&B legend. The Detroit diva debuted at age 16 with the 1962 single “My Man—He’s a Lovin’ Man,” which became a Top 10 hit on the R&B charts. Tours with Otis Redding, Ben E. King, Clyde McPhatter, and others followed, as well as a stint on Motown; a six-year run alongside Cab Calloway in Broadway’s “Bubbling Brown Sugar”; and a string of career-renaissance albums that includes 2005’s I’ve Got My Own Hell to Raise, 2007’s The Scene of the Crime (with Drive-By Truckers), and 2010’s Interpretations: The British Rock Songbook. Here, she pays a not-to-be-missed visit to the Bearsville Theater. $29-$54.
