Each Friday I pick a song–new, old, borrowed, blue–that’s been on my mind and in my ears, and write a short post about it.

Here’s “Love Gravy” by Rick James and Ike Turner:

Rick James and Ike Turner– “Love Gravy”

I guess if you get the two men in the music business you’d least likely want to bring home to mother into the same studio, this is the kind of thing that’s bound to happen.  My friends Tiffany and Larry introduced me to this ridiculous song when they put it on a mixtape they made for me many years ago.  For some reason, it’s been popping in and out of my head this week.  Tiffany is a writer.  You should buy her novels.  Find out about her and them here. I’m not sure there’s anything else I can say about this song that hasn’t already made itself evident upon first listen.
