NEWS FETCH PLAYLIST:

While creating this issue:

Becca liked this song best: Cocaine by Eric Clapton

Lew liked this song best: One Step Ahead by Aretha Franklin ... I remember her playing that song at a 1967 dance at Ole Miss before she was a legend and still on her way up. Her performance was stunning!

I spoke with her backstage during a break and was amazed at how friendly and approachable she was.

That was my high point at UofMiss since I got kicked out a few weeks later for my involvement in a protest march.
