Aretha Franklin - Lady Soul (Top 500 Countdown Update)

There isn't a missed beat on this album. It's fun to hear her arrangements of songs like "Groovin" and "People Get Ready" which are uniquely Aretha. Then you throw in big songs like "Chain of Fools" and "Natural Woman" along with funky songs like "Niki Hoekey" and you have a great album. I must confess I'm not a huge Aretha fan, but this is a very good album.
