     Lady Soul, released in January 1968, was one of Aretha Franklin's finest and most popular albums — a No. 2 record that featured her take on Carole King's "(You Make Me Feel Like a) Natural Woman" and the immortal "Chain of Fools." Just a landmark statement of female empowerment and inspired vocal performance. Other massive hits include "(Sweet, Sweet Baby) Since You've Been Gone" and "Ain't No Way."

     Lady Soul topped the R&B charts and reached No. 2 on the Billboard 200. Aretha also provides her own unique and soulful interpretations of James Brown's "Money Won't Change You," Ray Charles' "Come Back Baby" and Curtis Mayfield's civil rights anthem, "People Get Ready." Rolling Stone named Aretha Franklin as the No. 1 Greatest Singer of All Time and it's all in evidence on Lady Soul.
