Among Aretha aficionados, Amazing Grace has long been considered one of her high-water marks, since it captured her glorious return to her gospel roots in front of a live audience. The original 1972 album contained just 14 tracks, culled from two live performances with the Southern California Community Choir, Ken Lupper, and the Rev. James Cleveland at the New Temple Missionary Baptist Church.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Amazing Grace Aretha Franklin 1972

If You Haven’t Heard This, You Don’t Know Aretha submitted by robbo on August 29, 2018, 4:06pmAretha Franklin was not only the greatest Black soul singer, not only the greatest female soul singer, not only the greatest soul singer of all time, but the greatest gospel singer of all time.
This album is both a concert and recording center and a church service.
If you have a hang up about religiosity and church music, remember that this was part of the great heart and the musical legacy of the great Aretha Franklin.
