aretha arrives

Sundazed is proud to announce the reissue of a classic soul album by one of the most respect-ed female singers of any era: Aretha Arrives by Aretha Franklin and The Queen Alone. An exact reproduction of this legendary album on audiophile 180-gram vinyl, cut directly from the original Atlantic analog masters. 1967's Aretha Arrives, a stunning release from this Detroit-raised, gospel-influenced soul goddess, is jam-packed with Aretha strutting her stuff in front of King Curtis and the Muscle Shoals house band. She "Aretha-fies" everything here—from "Satisfaction" and "96 Tears" to the Frank Sinatra smash "That's Life" and "Ain't Nobody (Gonna Turn Me Around)," written by her sister, Carolyn Franklin—to create a firestorm of funky sounds that's impossible to resist.
