2 LPs ON 1 CD + 4 BONUS TRACKS
With her soaring voice and often fiery abandon, the great Aretha Franklin epitomized soul at its most gospel-charged. Lithe and sultry, assertive and caressing, knowing and luxuriant, her singing melts down any divisions between soul, jazz, gospel and blues, bringing an improvisatory spirit even to the most cut-and-dried pop material. This quintessential release presents Aretha’s second and third LPs: The Electrifying Aretha Franklin, and The Tender, the Moving, the Swinging Aretha Franklin. Both albums were originally issued by the Columbia label in 1962, and have been remastered and packaged together in this very special collector’s edition, which also includes 4 bonus tracks from the same period. It serves as the best introduction for anyone wanting to explore “Lady Soul’s” first steps as a professional musician. This is the material upon which Aretha’s soul kingdom and unique style were built.
“Here is a woman for whom the word ‘legend’ can be applied without grade inflation.”
– The New York Times
