    "comment": "Bobby \"Blue\" Bland's \"husky voice was gorgeous from the start, but as a young man he followed BB King – for a while literally, as his valet and chauffeur – and his singing took on a special character only after he began to study the recorded sermons of the Detroit preacher CL Franklin, Aretha's father. 'That's where I got my squall from,' he recalled. That alchemy of blues and gospel cadences would create one of the most affecting voices in black music.\": https://www.theguardian.com/music/2013/jun/24/bobby-blue-bland",
