Title: The Girl Has Skills!
Review: This is a nice throw back cd of yesterday. It's Aretha at her earliest. It has five great songs, that are tailored to the supper crowd, which was the thing to do back then when this record was recorded.It was trying to reach an adult audience and is loaded with standards to boot.This is Aretha in her between stage, where she was holding back the hot buttered soul. Yet, her passion does break out on this album, IF EVER I SHOULD LOSE YOU, is one track that you will notice her signature.Overall, this recording is a great departure from what we now know of as Aretha Franklin. It is good on its own merits for showing the versatility of an artist. If you are a big fan of Franklin's you would want this cd. If you are a romantic, you would want this cd. Simply put, it is just another style that Aretha's covering, and she does it quite well.I bought the recording and I love it. It just simply gives me another reason to dig Aretha Franklin.
