Aretha Franklin - History

Aretha Franklin, who is known as the 'Queen of Soul', has been one of the most important figures in popular music for over 40 years.

She was known for her flashy live performances that were sure to never disappoint. As she continues to tour around the country, Aretha Franklin tickets will sell out quick!

Aretha Franklin was born on March 25, 1942 in Memphis, Tennessee. She was the daughter of a minister, C.L. Franklin, who moved the family to Detroit where he became a nationally known reverend. Aretha Franklin sang in church choirs throughout her childhood and at age 14 began singing as part of her father's gospel revue. It wasn't until she was 18 she began recording and releasing albums like Aretha (1961), The Electrifying Aretha Franklin (1962), and The Tender Swinging Aretha Franklin (1962).

1967 marked when Aretha Franklin started her climb toward immortality with the release of the single 'I Never Loved a Man the Way I Love You'. The song held the #1 spot on Billboard's R&B Singles chart for seven weeks. This marked the first of six #1 singles that Aretha Franklin would release over the next couple of years, where she gained the respect of the entire music community and started gaining a huge fan following. Perhaps there is no single that she is better known for than 'Respect'. The song is recognized today as one of the best songs of the Rock & Roll era and will continue to be played for years to come.
