Aretha Franklin was the undisputed Queen of Soul, with a career spanning decades and a voice that defined soul music itself. By 1986, she was in a strong creative period, and this 12" release from that time showcases her in electronic-influenced funk and disco territory. The production reflects the contemporary dance and electronic influences of mid-1980s RandB, with synthesizers and drum machines backing her incomparable vocals. Aretha's voice remains a force of nature regardless of the arrangement—that's simply what she brought to every session. The disco-funk grooves here have energy and sophistication, crafted to work both on radio and the dancefloor. An essential document of a transitional moment in pop music history.
