Aretha FRANKLIN - "The Woman" (1998)

From "A Rose Is Still A Rose" album.
"The Woman - an Aretha-written grand finale that starts out slightly churchy, and ends with a lounge-club feel with 'Ree giving us some scats between her ad-libs." BEAUTIFUL!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! To the one and only Queen in American music. The Queen of Soul, Aretha Franklin. She is 67 today. By the way it was 1967 that she recorded her ultra hit R E S P E C T.

This was my favorite song from that entire album.

Woooooo!!!!! My goodness! Bravo! The song is simply outstanding . . . truly Rhee at her best. This song is so wonderfully misty and nostalgic. It takes me back to the red and black Atlantic Records Rhee. Remember those 45s with the red and black label we all used to have? Rhee indeed went back to her roots with much of the "Rose" album, which in my opinion was one of her best recordings in a long time. Go Rhee!!! BTW, get well soon, my sister.
