Are you thinking of Irma Thomas?
Irma is still perfoming and she just won her first Grammy. Her club in New Orleans, The Lions Den, was flooded during Katrina. I have not heard if she plans on rebuilding.
In 1964, Irma recorded her version of Time Is On My Side shortly before the Stones recorded their cover.
