Aretha Franklin - Aretha's Gold- New LTD Lemon-Lime LP

Memphis-born and Detroit-forged, Aretha Franklin was in absolutely fearsome form when Atlantic first gathered Aretha's Gold in 1969, scooping up 14 cuts from her 1967-68 imperial run. 'I Never Loved A Man (The Way I Love You)' simmers over Muscle Shoals grit, 'Respect' barges straight through the front door, and 'Chain Of Fools' coils itself around that nagging guitar figure like it owns the place. 'Think' is all snap and gospel fire, and 'I Say A Little Prayer' suddenly smooths the tablecloth. Nine Top Ten hits in one sitting.
