In keeping with the blackness of Black Friday, here are my two favourite black-themed songs, both from 1966. The first is Paint it Black by the Rolling Stones, featuring Stones member Brian Jones on the sitar and Mick with a poofy haircut:
The second is Black is Black by Spanish band Los Bravos:
Here’s another Stones song, Sweet Black Angel, recorded in 1970 but not released until 1972’s Exile On Main Street album. One of the Stones’ most overtly political songs, it was about black activist/feminist Angela Davis, a University of California professor who at the time of the Stones recording was in jail accused of conspiracy in four murder counts. Davis was eventually acquitted by an all-white jury and resumed teaching at UCLA.
The lovely Della Reese, who died earlier this week, played a sweet black angel on the long-running TV series Touched by An Angel. Her biggest hit came in 1959 with the release of Don’t You Know, which adapted Musetta’s Waltz, an aria from Puccini‘s opera La Bohème. But her voice was simply angelic on this 1960 recording, These Foolish Things (Remind Me of You):
