The bluest eye? Steven Augustine has the bluest eye. Why? Because of what he wrote once about Aretha. God, I wish I could find it on all his many sites. But the gist was that at the moment Motown issued forth her version of soul it was the political moment in which struggling people had to stay tough. Aretha, if they let her, would reach into their hearts and crush them with her soulful emotion. The Aretha experience was a luxurience indulgence. Love songs, BDR. My, you are complicit.
