Aretha Franklin: Amazing Grace version on vinyl 2LP in Standard edition. This particular edition was published in Europe in publishing company Atlantic in cooperation with Rhino Vinyl on 12. September 2014.

The album Amazing Grace, originally released in 1972, immediately hit the top ten of the Billboard charts upon its release, becoming one of the best-selling gospel albums of all time and, of course, one of the most successful albums by the "Queen of Soul". It has sold over 2 million copies in the US alone and the artist has won 18 Grammy Awards, which is incredible! The album was recorded in a large Baptist church with an enthusiastic and enthusiastic audience in the pews and a full funk band and the Southern California Community Choir under the direction of Aretha's mentor, Reverend James Cleveland. Her voice is melodic and full of the most intense emotion, yet clear and controlled - a direct herald of the Holy Spirit. Aretha's father, the distinguished preacher Rev. C. L. Franklin, delivers a short address in which he proudly states, among other things, that she has always been a diligent churchgoer. Highlights include the beautiful "Wholy Holy," a moving eleven-minute version of "Amazing Grace," and Inez Andrews' haunting "Mary, Don't You Weep." This recording was much more than a return to her roots when it was released, it is an inspired gospel-soul masterpiece!

Album spans genres Funk / Soul and Gospel. 180g Gatefold Vinyl.
