Lady Soul, released in January 1968, was one of Aretha Franklin’s finest and most popular albums — a No. 2 record that featured her take on Carole King’s “(You Make Me Feel Like a) Natural Woman” and the immortal “Chain of Fools.”

Just a landmark statement of female empowerment and inspired vocal performance. Other massive hits include “(Sweet, Sweet Baby) Since You’ve Been Gone” and “Ain’t No Way.”

Lady Soul topped the R&B charts and reached No. 2 on the Billboard 200.

Aretha also provides her own unique and soulful interpretations of James Brown’s “Money Won’t Change You,” Ray Charles’ “Come Back Baby” and Curtis Mayfield’s civil rights anthem, “People Get Ready.” Rolling Stone named Aretha Franklin as the No. 1 Greatest Singer of All Time and it’s all in evidence on Lady Soul.

Lacquers cut by Matthew Lutthans at The Mastering Lab from a flat 24/192 digital transfer of the original master tape.

Analogue Productions

Analogue Productions It was in 1992 that Acoustic Sounds owner Chad Kassem reissued his first Analogue Productions title, Virgil Thompson's The Plow That Broke The Plains, originally on Vanguard. Analogue Productions began as a vehicle for Kassem to license his favorite all-time recordings and reissue them as remastered and as a superior version to the original release. Since its inception AP has reissued hundreds of titles, ranging from classical to folk, pop, rock, blues and jazz. Included in the many highlights of Analogue Productions' history are the Fantasy 45 Jazz Reissues, the Blue Note Reissues, and premium box sets of the music of such legendary acts as The Doors, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Nat "King" Cole and Norah Jones. True to its name, Analogue Productions works with the original analogue master tapes - more than any other reissue label! The result is superior sound - richer, warmer and more lifelike, than digital.
