30 Greatest Hits is a 1985 Aretha Franklin's compilation album. The album chronicles majority of Franklin's hit singles during the Atlantic Records era from 1967 up to 1974. Following Franklin's death, the album entered the top ten of the Billboard 200 albums chart at number seven, in the week ending on August 25, 2018. It climbed one spot higher on the following week, becoming Franklin's highest-peaking compilation album in the United States. Disc 1. "I Never Loved a Man (The Way I Love You)".
30 Greatest Hits zeroes in on Aretha Franklin's prime recording period for Atlantic, from her breakout in 1967 with "I Never Loved a Man (The Way I Love You)" through the end of 1974, during which the Queen of Soul truly reigned over the charts - she averaged over one pop hit every two months.
In December 2015, Aretha Franklin moved President Obama to tears by performing this song on the stage of the Kennedy Center, in Washington. A Brand New Me is an album with a unique conception, consisting of classical arrangements of Aretha Franklin's greatest hits by the London Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. The diva's voice was taken from original recordings with the legendary Atlantic Records studio, to which was later added an orchestral accompaniment. An arduous and meticulous project bringing together 14 of her greatest songs, including Think, I Say a Little Prayer, A Natural Woman and Respect, with a symphonic twist.
Aretha Franklin Sings the Great Diva Classics is the thirty-eighth and final studio album by American recording artist Aretha Franklin and was released on October 17, 2014. It features ten covers of songs made famous by female recording artists
Aretha Franklin's voice is an instrument of such exquisite expression that it has been matched but a few times in the 20th century. Borrowing from jazz, soul, R&B, rock, pop, and, of course, gospel-and accompanying herself on piano-she created an artistic vision that was wholly realized. Hits includes most of her chart singles from those incomparable Atlantic years, from "Respect" in 1967 well into the '70s, as well as noncharting classics like "Do Right Woman" and "Dr. Feelgood. Nothing but some of her greatest hits. The bad news: you'll need to check out some of her other songs in other collections, like the Sparkle album, her Columbia jazz stuff-which isn't bad as some might think-Columbia just didn't let Aretha be Aretha, thankfully Atlantic fixed that issue once she started to work for them in 1967. 5 starts just for this collection of songs alone.
