The collection also spotlights the great music Franklin recorded in the 1970s, including the two albums she released to open the decade. Along with several singles from his era, THE QUEEN OF SOUL also gathers up several live performances with "Spirit in the Dark" (Reprise with Ray Charles) from Aretha Live at the Fillmore West (1971), plus several songs from her live album Amazing Grace (1972).
