ARETHA FRANKLIN Never Loved a Man The Way I Love You 45rpm Atlantic 584084 1967
Aretha Franklin was 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 many others -- earned her the title Queen of Soul. Franklin never rested on her laurels. Following the early-'70s LPs Spirit in the Dark and Young, Gifted and Black, she scored more hits on the R&B charts than pop, adeptly following the progression of soul in the '70s and '80s thanks to her collaborations with Curtis Mayfield (1976's Sparkle) and Luther Vandross (1982's Jump to it). Franklin made a triumphant return to pop with 1985's Who's Zooming Who?and its Top Ten single "Freeway of Love," which was followed in 1987 by the George Michael duet "I Knew You Were Waiting (For Me)," which became her first number one hit on the Billboard charts since "Respect" in 1967. Franklin spent the next three decades performing and recording regularly, maintaining her status as the Queen of Soul until her death in 2018.
I have graded the vinyl Excellent in line with Vinyl Factory grading.
Excellent – Tolerating very light marks where the vinyl has been in and out of the inner sleeve a few times, or tiny signs of use generally.
The record looks very good indeed, black and shiny and hardly any sign of blemish or imperfection in ordinary daylight. However, when I place it under a bright spot I can read its history of light use and wear, which still having seen that I think it is correctly graded excellent. It test plays clear and fine on both sides.
There is a new inner sleeve with a soft lining for protection, as well as a thicker plastic outer sleeve. I have created a photographic frontispiece for easy identification when housed in a collection but THIS IS NOT AN ORIGINAL COVER.

POSTAGE : I prefer to use UPS via eBay, which is a really speedy service, usually arriving overseas within 2-4 days, whereas Royal Mail can take many weeks to arrive. I have a flat rate of £20 which is what it costs to deliver to US and other parts of the World although Europe is around £15. There is only provision for one flat rate and so it is fixed at £20. If you live in Europe please mail me and I will adjust the postage before you buy. In some instances the postage costs more than £20, to further parts of the World and we may need to similarly adjust this, although often I am prepared to pay the difference provided the record isn’t very low value.
