Aretha Franklin is a giant both of soul and American popular music. Born in 1942 in Memphis, Tennessee, to the Reverend CL Franklin, a Baptist preacher, and Barbara Siggers Franklin, a gospel singer, she had daily exposure to the religious music which so influenced her career. Indeed, Aretha’s first album, ‘The Gospel Soul Of Aretha Franklin’, was recorded in 1956 when she was just 14. This collection puts a spotlight on her early Columbia years and gives a unique insight into the development of a singer who has long since become a household name.
