- Respect (1967) R-E-S-P-E-C-T — selten wurden sieben Buchstaben mit so viel Nachdruck gesungen. Dabei hat Komponist Otis Redding beim Schreiben der Nummer gar nicht die Feminismus-Hymne im Sinn, zu der Aretha Franklin((LINK)) den Song später umdeutet.
- (You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman (1967) Mit der Soul-Ballade (You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman landet Aretha Franklin 1967 bereits ihren vierten Top-Ten-Hit in den USA.
- Chain Of Fools (1967) „Chain, chain, chain“: Diese dreifache Wiederholung von Aretha Franklin hat beinahe jeder Musikfan schon einmal gehört. Inhaltlich geht es in dem Song aus der Feder von Don Covay um eine Frau, die seit fünf Jahren mit ihrem Freund zusammen ist, dann aber merkt, dass sie nur ein Glied in seiner „Chain Of Fools“ ist, also eine der zahlreichen Frauen, die er betrügt.
- I Say A Little Prayer (1968) Mit I Say A Little Prayer stürmt 1967 zunächst die Sängerin Dionne Warwick die Hitparade der Vereinigten Staaten, bevor sich 1968 auch Aretha Franklin der Nummer annimmt.

In one sense, United Together is symbolic of what went wrong with Franklin’s career in the early 80s – it’s a high-gloss MOR ballad, a world away from the music that made her name. But you can’t get away from the fact that she sounds amazing, investing the lyric with undeniable power.
Her last album (after 23 years) on Arista, So Damn Happy made more concessions to Franklin’s past than its immediate predecessors: she played piano, wrote material and sounded more comfortable in her surroundings. You can hear it on Holdin’ On, co-written and arranged by Mary J Blige, proof that her vocal ability was undiminished in her 60s.
Laden with guest appearances, home to Sisters Are Doing It for Themselves, 1985’s Who’s Zoomin’ Who restored Franklin to the charts. The album’s production is very of its era: the 60s Motown pastiche Freeway of Love was remixed to appeal to “rock” – ie white – audiences. But it’s such a fantastic song, it hardly matters: Franklin, meanwhile, sounds...
Her audience seemed to think Franklin was lowering herself by making the disco album La Diva, but the reality is far better than its wretched reputation suggests, as evidenced by her version of this Lalomie Washburn song, far too funky and robust to feel like belated bandwagon-jumping.
The Curtis Mayfield-helmed soundtrack to the film Sparkleis an overlooked gem in Franklin’s catalogue, his songs great, the lush proto-disco sound a delight. Something He Can Feel was supposed to be part of the repertoire of the 60s girl group at the heart of the film, but it’s too well-written and subtle to sound like pastiche.
Finally allowed, by her new label Atlantic, to do whatever she wanted – “They just told me to sit at the piano and sing” – Franklin responded with the title track of her 10th album, a blues into which she appeared to pour all the pain of her marriage to the appalling Ted White.
The late 90s attempt to give Franklin a hip-hop/neo soul-influenced makeover didn’t really work, except on the album’s Lauryn Hill-penned title track. The beat and the lyrical references to “flossin’” are contemporary, but the singer sounds unfazed, delivering a coolly controlled performance.
Franklin’s early-80s albums don’t get a lot of love. They are certainly not unimpeachable classics to match her late 60s/early 70s imperial period, but they’re still studded with gems. From the Luther Vandross-produced LP Get It Right, Every Girl (Wants My Guy) is a fabulously sassy slice of post-disco boogie.
Columbia Records knew Franklin was talented, but not what to do with her, peppering her career with false starts. Occasionally, however, her full power was unleashed, as here. A frantic take on Dinah Washington’s 1963 hit, this is more edgy and exciting than the MOR and jazz-pop the label usually lumbered her with.
Franklin completely inhabits Willie Nelson’s song about his early career, struggling at the bottom of Nashville’s ladder. The backing perfectly conjures up a dingy club at 3am, her performance switching between weariness and a weird kind of relish: “The night life ain’t no good life, but you know it’s my life.”
