33 1/3 – Aretha Franklin's Amazing Grace
Book (Item 584466) Continuum, 2011 — Condition: New Copy
A deep deep look at the Amazing Grace album by Aretha Franklin – her legendary return to gospel roots, recorded right during the height of her secular fame at Atlantic Records! The double-length album is a groundbreaking blend of gospel and soul – and a real standout in Franklin's career – a fact that Cohen gets right away, and uses for a rich exploration of the music and the circumstances that surround it. And unlike some other books of this nature, Aaron doesn't just give the record a spin – but provides loads of new research, interviews, and archival material that really help illuminate this important album! © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. | |||||
