There was a recording of Aretha Franklin and the Royal Philarmonic released last year and... it's majestic.

 

Fallen in love with Until You Come Back To Me, what a song.  They're all great to be honest.  A 10/10 album.

 

I picked this up the other day in HMV for £3.99. I was shocked at the price and quickly picked it up and bought it before they realised it was a mistaken price. It's also £3.99 on amazon so clearly not a mistake.

 

Cracking album.

I know it's probably terrible, but I only like this type of music in very small doses.

 

And by that, I mean sampled as a bassline, drum loop, or similar sample in hiphop records.

 

No disrespect to Nat Adderley, but I don't want to listen to "Rise, Sally, Rise",

I want to hear "Know The Ledge" by Erik B and Rakim at fucking ELEVEN.

I don't really get the point in that album. I've got everything Aretha released from 1967 to 1976, all the arrangements & musicians were about as near perfect as you can get, I don't think it needed messing with. 

 

I'd love to know what she thinks of it.

I love that song.  I forced my band to do it.  Not quite as well as Aretha, mind.
