ARETHA FRANKLIN Live At Fillmore West 1971 UK ATLANTIC RARE ORIGINAL - NEAR MINT
ARETHA FRANKLINAretha Live At Fillmore West
1971 UK ATLANTIC (SUPER 2400 136) FIRST PRESSING
AN OUTSTANDING ONCE PLAYED *NEAR MINT* COPY OF THIS HARD TO FIND ORIGINAL ISSUE
PRESSED WITH THE FIRST RED/PLUM ATLANTIC LABELS
MATRIX: 2400136 A//1 11 2 / 2400136 B//1 11 1
HOUSED IN THE ORIGINAL MATT GATEFOLD SLEEVE"Printed and made in England by MacNeill Press Ltd., London, S.E.1"
COMPLETE WITH THE ORIGINAL POLY-LINED INNER SLEEVE - DATED ’1071’ (October 1971)
The music here sparkles and crackles with the energy of a top-flight rhythm section -- Cornell Dupree on guitar, Bernard Purdie on drums, and Jerry Jemmott on bass, with Billy Preston on organ, Curtis on saxophone, and the Memphis Horns. T
The backing vocals were provided by Franklin's own crew, the Sweethearts of Soul (Brenda Bryant, Margaret Branch, and Pat Smith).
Franklin also plays a Fender Rhodes on four cuts - “Eleanor Rigby," "Spirit in the Dark," "Don't Play That Song," and "Dr. Feelgood."
In addition, there is a guest duet vocal by Ray Charles on "Spirit in the Dark."
Beginning with "Respect" (a house-burning tear-up read), Franklin then digs deep into her pop song bag of tricks for "Bridge Over Troubled Water" and Stephen Stills' "Love the One You're With," and also redeems Bread's saccharine "Make It with You"
An altogether stunning set from the lady at the peak of her powers
