    Aretha Franklin - Eleanor Rigby. I think the studio version is even better, but the video is more entertaining to watch then an album cover.

I've got the original Aretha at the Fillmore LP. If I ever get a chance to pick this up on the cheap I will.

I am no fan of Ray Charles but the track with him on the record is ok.

Jerry Jemmott is a fine bass player but James Jamerson (my favorite bass player of all time) was a long time Aretha side man, I wish he had been on this date.

As much as I refuse to believe that anyone couldn't be a fan of Ray Charles, it's pretty sweet you've already got the LP.

Yea my music head friends don't understand why I don't like Ray either, I just don't find much variety on most his albums, just Ray being Ray. He has a few songs I like. I gave all my Ray charles vinyl to friends not long ago.
