***A 50th Anniversary, Of Sorts- Motown’s The Supremes’ Baby Love  





 
 
Frank Jackman comment:

In a world where the U.S. is ominously increasingly intervening in the civil war in Iraq, the Palestinians in Gaza stand practically defenseless against the Israeli juggernaut, and the flames of cop-driven racial hatred have surfaced in places as diverse as Ferguson, Mo and New York City commemorating the 50th anniversary of the emergence of The Supreme and their string of great dance-worthy hits may seem a little out of place. But just a little as those of us from the Generation of ’68 remember back to those  dark night dances where the three good-looking black women formed the musical background to many a last chance, last dance promise of things to come. Now back to the world.
