She was an all-time great for decades, from her start in the late 1950s into the 1960s to her incredible comeback in the 1980s. And in 2000, she performed before one of the all-time best Super Bowls in NFL history: XXXIV between the then-St. Louis Rams and Tennessee Titans in Atlanta.

It wasn’t the halftime show. But a set with Proud Mary that was part of the “Great American Music of the 20th Century” was just fantastic.
