HMV Review

Spirit in the Dark was one of Aretha Franklin's more overlooked albums from her Atlantic prime, despite the inclusion of a couple hit singles (the title track and Don't Play That Song). The disc includes five of her own compositions (the most she ever recorded for a single album) and her usual eclectic choice of cover material. On this record, the covers ranged from B.B. King and Dr. John to Jimmy Reed and Goffin/King's Oh Not My Baby. The album also benefits from great backup players: Both the Muscle Shoals rhythm section and the Dixie Flyers contributed to the sessions, and Duane Allman lends his guitar to a couple of tracks. Though it doesn't rank with her very best Atlantic LPs, it's an exuberant and remarkably consistent effort. The 1993 CD reissue has detailed liner notes on the songs and sessions by David Nathan. ~ Richie Unterberger, Rovi

    1970年盤。R&Bのスタンダードとオリジナルが大半を占めた満足度の高い1枚です。駄作のない濃い内容です。「全部を揃えたいとは思わない」と言う人は、このアルバムは外さない方がいいです。つまり誰でもが持っていた方がいいと思います。私のベスト・スリーに入る1枚です。
