I remember this gig, I was there with Mel on drums and the last minute he said 'Oh, you're backing Della also." Great book to play and she was sassy and great to the band. We rode to the airport together the next day, classy lady.

Indeed, both Della and Mel show elegance and class, please bring singers like this back.

What a blessing and a joy it was to be in her company for Sunday service at UPCHURCH where she was the Reverend Della Reese-Lett for 20+ years. We were truly “TOUCHED BY AN ANGEL”

Very compelling, Della's unique song-styling, Mel's gentle-force velvet fog and their mutual respect and grace.

I am glad to watch this concert. For me it is a rather strange combination, especially when they sing together: the very powerful and tough voice of Della and the very beautiful voice of Mel. But thank you for uploading.

Two very special individual voices with the ability to be great entertainers and performers.

I would have loved to have been in the audience for this! Thank God for RUclips!!

[@lawrencefernandez7482]

Fabulous!! The great DELLA REESE-LETT sure could sang. I’m sure she sang all the way through the pearly gate’s. She is missed our Reverend Della Reese-Lett. We were truly “TOUCHED BY AN ANGEL”
