Aretha Franklin

Featured Replies

The industry has changed. Live performers who are an attraction for the power and enthusiasm for there voice and rhythm alone are nearly all gone. Franklin like so many great crooners before here didn't need latex and fireworks to put on a show. She was a genre to herself and the attraction was always purely her. 

Apparently "Respect" was an Otis Redding song.

He said she "stole" it when he heard it on the radio:)
