2002 EU reissue on 180g vinyl -This is in many ways the quintessential Aretha album- great self-penned originals, contemporary songs some blues and R & B standards, the Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section and Duane Allman playing some fine leads. While there's only one major hit here ('Don't Play That Song') the album stands up as one of Aretha's finest moments. Original packaging save for the hue of the cover with new liner notes by Richie Unterberger.

Tracks:
A1 Don't Play That Song
A2 The Thrill Is Gone (From Yesterday's Kiss)
A3 Pullin'
A4 You And Me
A5 Honest I Do
A6 Spirit In The Dark

B1 When The Battle Is Over
B2 One Way Ticket
B3 Try Matty's
B4 That's All I Want From You
B5 Oh No Not My Baby
B6 Why I Sing The Blues

This album from 1970 includes five vibrant selfpenned Aretha classics as well as songs by BB King Dr John Jimmy Reed and Carole King Musicians include Brother Duane Allman Big Star/Rolling Stones session man Jim Dickinson along with the Muscle Shoals rhythm section and the Dixie Flyers The November 2002 issue of Mojo magazine said of this uplifting LP triumphantspiritual in immense proportionsdefiant jubilant Features liner notes by Richie Unterberger Remastered at Fantasy studios from the original 1970 master recordings

One of Arethas most committedsounding albumswhich of course is really saying somethingthe 1970 Spirit in the Dark remains among the high points of her Atlantic work The breakup of her marriage may be an unspoken theme but just as striking is her reinvention of wellknown songs and motifs even more dramatic here than usual Both dovetail in her take on The Thrill Is Gone which climaxes on a surprising interpolation of the phrase free at last Rickey Wright
There are three reasons this disc gets the high five rating The Thrill is Gone Try Mattys and Why I Sing the Blues I always felt this was an underappreciated effort by Aretha Arethas piano work is forever as distinctive as is Ray Charles and Try Mattys besides being SUCH an Aretha song is transported by the glistening piano work she pulls off This is one of the best of Ahmet Erteguns almost mystical collaborations with this Genius Why I Sing the Blues with its compound rhythms and that unbottled phrase Lookit I brought this talent back move over and give it some is both a political anthem and one of the most sophisticated pieces of pop around Aretha is a rare force of nature and this disc smokes like a hurricane Get itBy J Anderson&nbsp
