crisp Posted March 21, 2011 Report Posted March 21, 2011 It seems to be almost conventional wisdon that Aretha's Columbia recordings are somehow inferior to the later Atlantic recordings. Not true. They are different...there are a lot more covers and a lot more standards but over the years they have stood up extremely well. These are the only Aretha discs I own, so I can't say whether they are inferior to her later work. I certainly prefer them to most of her hits. Quote
mjzee Posted March 22, 2011 Report Posted March 22, 2011 9 of the albums just dropped on eMusic, @ $5.99 each (I think they already had the other two): Tiny Sparrow Aretha (with Ray Bryant) Take A Look The Queen In Waiting Laughing on the Outside Runnin' Out of Fools Yeah!!! Electrifying A Bit of Soul Quote
alankin Posted June 3, 2011 Report Posted June 3, 2011 I guess $79.99 isn't a bad price. It's available through Monday on Popmarket. Quote
Tjazz Posted June 4, 2011 Report Posted June 4, 2011 I guess $79.99 isn't a bad price. It's available through Monday on Popmarket. Don't forget the 15% OFF COUPON. FF2011 $68! Quote
jazzbo Posted June 13, 2011 Report Posted June 13, 2011 Anyone who has this set . . . the initial batch had a defective disc four, "Laughing on the Outside." The defect is that it does not contain two proper bonus tracks, other tracks are substituted. There is a replacement disc, and Jim Lane of Sony is THE MAN for this disc. I emailed him for one on Friday, received it today. If you discover you need a replacement disc, email him at: jim.lane@sonymusic.com Quote
