About this album

A strong overview of Aretha Franklin’s most celebrated soul recordings, this compilation gathers the songs that turned her into the genre’s defining voice. By the mid-1980s, Franklin’s Atlantic-era classics were already canon: the commanding version of Respect, the aching I Say a Little Prayer, the jubilant Think and the gospel-rooted power of (You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman all show why her blend of church fire, pop instinct and vocal authority proved so enduring. The Best Of Aretha Franklin distils that legacy into a concise portrait of a singer who transformed every line she sang into a statement of strength and feeling.

Genre: Soul & Funk
