Our Take
Aretha Franklin, the undisputed queen of soul, is back in the spotlight with her latest reissue "The Early Hits" on pink vinyl. This collection takes us on a journey through Franklin's formative years, showcasing her raw talent and undeniable presence from the get-go.
From the infectious groove of "Respect" to the powerful vocals on "Baby I Love You," each track on this album is a testament to Franklin's incredible range and charisma. The early hits may not have the polished production of her later work, but they more than make up for it in their raw energy and soulful delivery.

About the artist
Aretha Franklin
Oh, honey, let me tell you about the Queen of Soul herself, Miss Aretha Franklin. This iconic artist was born in Memphis, Tennessee back in 1942, and let me tell you, she has been slaying the music game ever since. Aretha got her start singing gospel music in her father's church, honing that powerhouse voice of hers that would go on to earn her 18 Grammy Awards. Talk about talent oozing out of every pore. From her early hits like "Respect" and "Think" to her soulful rendition of "Natural Woman," Aretha's music is like a warm hug for your ears. Her vocal range is unparalleled, and her ability to convey raw emotion in every note is nothing short of magical. But it's not just her voice that sets Aretha apart. She's a total boss when it comes to playing the piano, effortlessly blending soul, gospel, and R&B into one unforgettable sound. And let's not forget her iconic fashion sense. Aretha's larger-than-life hats and glamorous gowns are as much a part of her persona as her powerhouse vocals. In a world of music industry divas, Aretha Franklin reigns supreme. Her influence can be heard in the voices of countless artists who came after her, and her legacy will continue to inspire generations to come. So next time you're feeling down, just put on some Aretha Franklin and let that soulful voice wash over you. Trust me, you won't regret it.
