I know Letterman is "dark" on Fridays.
I think they might have just taped it last night.

It says Darlene Love is performing on Letterman tonight when I clicked the "info" button on my remote

She probably will perform it, but not in that type of venue again.

There is a great Netflix documentary about her and other back up singers called 20 Feet from Stardom (?) that is really great>

She sings with her heart and soul!
