Aretha Franklin – I Never Loved A Man (The Way I Love You)

I Never Loved A Man

A woman so steeped in history you almost forget she once made physically startling, wholly heartful soul music that is still just as shocking to dance to today as it was in ‘67.  This one’s been on repeat in my kitchen during cook time, & I wouldn’t ask for a better blues tune.  It’s astounding how well that old guitar work battles with the high hat & brass section all at once.  Goddamn this is a SONG.
