Ensayo del Salón de la Fama

1987

Michael Hill

Aretha Franklin sólo tenía veinticinco años cuando se hizo con el título de Lady Soul con su inolvidable, orgullosa, sexy y cándida versión de 1967 de "Respect" de Otis Redding.

Franklin ya había anunciado el sonido de lo que estaba por venir con su primer sencillo producido por Jerry Wexler para Atlantic Records, "I Never Loved a Man (the Way l Love You)", grabado en los Fame Recording Studios de Rick Hall, en Muscle Shoals, Alabama.

Esa legendaria sesión de un día marcó no sólo la aparición de un talento prodigioso, sino el inicio de una nueva era de música soul fresca y directa.
