Aretha Franklin
Rare & Unreleased Recordings from the Golden Reign of the Queen of Soul
Album · R&B/Soul · 2007
Covering Aretha’s prolific and wildly successful period at Atlantic Records (1966-74), Rare & Unreleased weaves together outtakes, demos and B-sides from the soul legend’s vast catalogue. “I Never Loved a Man (The Way I Love You)” is a delicate gospel shuffle, the sparse instrumentation granting Aretha’s raw, towering vocals the space to flourish. Her passionate rendition of “My Way” shows off her warm phrasing and instinctive melodic shifts, while “The Fool On the Hill” injects the Beatles track with her love of jazz.
