  • Hey Everyone I did post this as the MDA Telethon audio but there has been doubt on whether that is accurate - I now believe it to be Radio City Music Hall! 1990 - EITHER WAY IT IS AN AMAZING VERSION - so apologies for that!
    Aretha is smashing this piano - wow I love her piano playing - this is amazing - Radio City Music Hall 1990! I've added a bit of trivia about Aretha's favoured piano - Ann Arbor piano's and Concord University has possession of her favourite concert piano! I should have included a link - but if you google (if you're interested) the details in this clip Aretha Franklin Ann Arbor Concord University I'm sure you will be able to find the page easy enough - there are several sites actually with info about her love of these piano's . She really is an amazing pianist - I wish she had done an album of her just playing the piano - but then we would miss out on her amazing voice!

    In 1989 Aretha stopped smoking and you can hear her voice was going back to the old Aretha. My favourite Aretha eras are 1967-1981 Then 1990-2000. FANTASTIC VIDEO.

      @direfranchement 4 роки тому +4

      That isn't correct. She didn't stop smoking until 1994, and she subsequently gained a large amount of weight. As can be heard here, access to her upper register is still quite limited and it had been since around 1980. After she quit smoking, she regained access to the higher notes, but the perforated quality to her voice as can be heard here was permanent.

    • @MrsMattMurphy

      I'll have to compare the audios because I have the 1990 Radio City Music Hall concert - actually have most of them - so will do some research - you cant trust descriptions then can you on some audios - but I will double check! Awesome regardless - she's killin' that piano a slow and painful death lol

      @MrJmervel 6 років тому +2

      Indeed she is. I wasn't sure until I heard her do the piano riffs after the bridge. They were exactly the same as the 60 MINUTES piece, and I know she doesn't usually do it the same way twice.

    Gladys Knight said that Aretha rarely used her talents and I understand it. Her performances were good, some great and some were absolutely stunning. If only she made more effort in her later career, we would have so many more gems like this. But during the last 20 years or so I had too often an impression that she slept off too many of her performances
