Aretha Franklin has transcended...

2018-08-17 28

She has covered a wide range of musical styles; worked with a range of producers and artists, from Curtis Mayfield to Lauryn Hill... And while she noted that 'soul' can be in anything, from country to R&B, she was still pegged as being associated with 'soul' as a musical genre, which is why i think the title of 'Queen Of Soul' is limiting. It was difficult for me to think of my favorite songs during the commentary, but a few favorites are:

-Jump
-I Say A Little Prayer
-Don't let Me Lose This Dream
-Jump To It
-Love Me Right
-So Swell When you're Well
-I Dreamed A Dream
-Take It Like You Give It

Thank you, Miss Aretha Franklin.
