Aretha, favorite recordings?


Aretha Franklin. Folks, my "best of" CD just doesn't sound as good on my "real" stereo as it did in the old boom box days.

Best recordings? Both in terms of Aretha kicking b*tt, and in terms of good sound (I'm not talking audiophile here, just want a less-than-muted voice. Vinyl or CD, either one.

What is the rumor of a gospel album? Has anyone heard it?

I'm expecting thoughts to lean towards older music, but I am willing to be suprised!

Thanks!

Hi Eric; "The Very Best of Aretha Franklin" Vols. 1 and 2 on Rhino, and also "Aretha Franklin's 30 GH" on Atlantic (2 CD set), as well as "I Never Loved A Man The Way I Loved You" also on Atlantic. You're right, these are a few years old now, but they have Aretha's best music, IMO, and the recordings are pretty decent. Good Luck. Craig.
