Description
Originally released in January of 1969, this is Aretha's sixth album for Atlantic and mistakenly one of her most under-rated '60s albums. Despite the title, Soul '69 is a brilliant jazz flavored set (with sophisticated brass arrangements and cool horn playing) featuring 'Today I Sing The Blues', 'Gentle On My Mind' plus passionate covers of The Miracles' 'Tracks Of My Tears' and Sam Cooke's 'Bring It On Home To Me' among others. The Queen of Soul is backed by jazz musicians including Kenny Burrell, Ron Carter, David Newman, Joe Zawinul plus the amazing grooves of the legendary Muscle Shoals rhythm section. Contains new liner notes by MC5 manager, poet and music historian John Sinclair. Audiophile remastering from the original master tapes.180 gram HQ vinyl. Original artwork. Gatefold sleeve.
