Details:
Before she signed to Atlantic Records in 1966, the undisputed Queen of Soul made ten albums for the Columbia label, starting in 1961. These albums (her fifth and sixth) have only appeared briefly on CD, and there is a great demand from Aretha’s many fans, new and old, to have the albums available once more. The concept of "Unforgettable: A Tribute To Dinah Washington", issued in August 1964, is self-explanatory. Dinah Washington had died in December 1963, having given much support and patronage to the young Aretha. Franklin delivers her unique take on songs made famous by Washington, backed by the cream of New York’s finest session musicians. "Runnin’ Out Of Fools", issued in December 1964, sees Aretha make twelve well-known songs of the time completely her own. From Bacharach ("Walk On By") to Motown ("My Guy") via Charlie and Inez Foxx ("Mockingbird"), every track is a masterpiece of interpretation. The bonus tracks are contemporary non-album singles sides, including the hit "Can’t You Just See Me".
