BEFORE I SEND CORRECT INVOICE!

  BEFORE BIDDING, PLEASE

CAREFULLY READ BELOW THE CORRECT SHIPPING COST!

 THESE RATES ARE FOR BOXES UP TO 3 KG (1 to 5 LPs).

please ask for prices with registered letter for 1 or 2 LPs),

 with a sturdy and well conceived box.

The shipping cost  also depends by the exchange euro/pounds. 

Still, starting from the 1st of December the Italian Post increased 

the price for the international & domestic shipment. 

We have done our best to absorb any handling fees in order

PLEASE ASK FOR ANY INFORMATION

ARETHA FRANKLIN

with Spooner Oldham, Jimmy Johnson

Warren Smith, Tom Cogbill, Wayne Jackson

Roger Hawkins, Jerry Jammot, etc.

Aretha Franklin is one of the giants of soul music, and indeed of American pop as a whole. 

More than any other performer, she epitomized soul at its most gospel-charged. 

Her astonishing run of late-'60s hits with Atlantic Records -- "Respect," 

"I Never Loved a Man," "Chain of Fools," "Baby I Love You," "I Say a Little Prayer," 

"Think," "The House That Jack Built," and several others -- earned her 

the title "Lady Soul," which she has worn uncontested ever since. 

Yet as much of an international institution as she's become, much of her work 

-- outside of her recordings for Atlantic in the late '60s and early '70s -- 

is erratic and only fitfully inspired, making discretion a necessity when collecting her records

tracklisting

Side 1: THINK - I SAY A LITTLE PRAYER - SEE SAW

NIGHT TIME IS THE RIGHT TIME - YOU SEND ME

Side 2: YOU'RE A SWEET SWEET MAN - I TALE WHAT I WANT

RECORD EX but before bidding (please, read above description)

SLEEVE NEAR EX but (please, see pictures and read above description)

Though a bit short on running time at ten songs, this still caught Aretha Franklin 

at the peak of her early form. "Think," "I Say a Little Prayer," "See Saw," 

and "I Can't See Myself Leaving You" were all big hits. 

Her choice of cover material included some of her most R&B-drenched early

 Atlantic cuts, like "Night Time Is the Right Time," "You Send Me," 

and "I Take What I Want."...(AllMusic)
