ALL BACK TO MY PLACE
THE STARS REVEAL THE SONIC DELIGHTS GUARANTEED TO GET THEM GOING...
Darlene Love
SHE’S A REBEL
What music are you currently grooving to?
Earth, Wind & Fire, doesn’t matter which one. Also, music that keeps me calm, what we call meditation music, and I love Adele, she’s gorgeous.
What, if push comes to shove, is your all-time favourite album?
Well, my music that I listened to was mostly on 45. But one song that I can listen to, if it’s 20 years from now or the next minute, is Sam Cooke’s You Send Me. I was acquainted with him when he was singing gospel music, but when he started singing secular music, he brought that same spirit.
What was the first record you ever bought? And where did you buy it?
Sings, “Darling, you send me...” That was the first! From Sam’s record store on Central Avenue in Los Angeles, in a predominantly black neighbourhood, where we hung out.
