“After Laughter (Comes Tears)” (1964) by Wendy René (c. 1962-1967; 2010)

René sang backup for Otis Redding (who came up with her stage name) and was scheduled to fly out with him and The Bar-Kays on December 10, 1967. She decided to back out at the last minute due to her new motherhood. This would prove to be a life saving decision as that was the flight that took Redding’s life. The sole survivor of the crash was trumpeter Ben Cauley. Bassist James Alexander lucked out as he was on a separate flight. René just recently passed away of a stroke on December 16th.

“After Laughter” was sampled on Wu-Tang Clan’s “Tearz”
