The official audio for Aretha Franklin's full album, Aretha Live at Fillmore West, released on May 19, 1971. This live album captures Aretha Franklin at the height of her powers performing over three nights at the famed Fillmore West in San Francisco, backed by King Curtis’s band and featuring a standout duet with Ray Charles on “Spirit in the Dark.”

The record opens with her iconic take on “Respect” and moves through soulful reinterpretations of contemporary favorites like “Love the One You’re With,” “Bridge Over Troubled Water,” and “Eleanor Rigby,” alongside deep, gospel-infused performances of “Dr. Feelgood” and “Spirit in the Dark,” creating an overall effect that’s raw, spontaneous, and intensely engaging, showcasing her unmatched voice, improvisational flair, and rock-meets-soul versatility in a live setting.

Stay In Touch with the Queen of Soul…

*******************

An icon of 20th and 21st century music, the voice of the civil rights movement, and the undisputed Queen of Soul—there is only one Aretha Franklin. In her incredible six-decade career, Aretha evolved from teenage gospel star to reigning pop and R&B diva, recording classics like “(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman,” “Chain Of Fools”, “Think” (lyrics by Aretha Franklin), definitive versions of the songs “Respect” and “I Say a Little Prayer”, and global hits like “Freeway Of Love,” “I Knew You Were Waiting (For Me)”, and “A Rose Is Still A Rose.”

Altogether, 112 of her singles reached the charts, with 20 No. 1 R&B singles, the most ever by a female artist. She won 18 Grammy Awards (including the first eight trophies for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance) and, out of recognition for her for indelible contribution to American music and culture, received both the Presidential Medal Of Freedom and a Pulitzer Prize.
