What a tribute to Ella Fitzgerald this truly was....so reminiscent of Ella in phrasing, tone and style....with undertones of Aretha's soulfulness....🌷🌷🌷
Interesting that she credits two others with recording this song and her massive contribution is "improvising a little bit". I wish she had done more of these artistic recordings. This was a masterpiece.
I always prefer to hear a singing live performance. Especially, if it's Aretha, my absolute favorite singer! However, she did an excellent job lip syncing, considering it's a difficult upbeat song to sing and she made it look EASY!
@@BlackMusicArchiveLive It was easier and cheaper to play back the recording than to have all of the musicians and back-up singers perform live. In addition, some record companies insisted on lip-synching to the recording for such shows so that it sounded exactly like the recording without any mishaps since the purpose of having artists do these shows was to sell more of their records. Also, in this case, on the recording, multi-track overdubbing is used for Aretha to sing multiple parts simultaneously, and she could not do that in a live performance.

She knew her VOICE. It was a great marriage 💪🏼💯🖤
Come through JazzRetha!!!!!
Sweet Passion is the best Aretha Franklin era

That's my queen !!!!!!!
I have NEVER seen Aretha lip sync! I am totally surprised. I played this "Sweet Passion" until I knew every word by heart, including Mumbles LOL
Magnificent as usual… Only Aretha!!
No single for this great track ??? A very good album "Sweet Passion" (May '77) 😎
Keep these classic performances coming. Some of these I thought I’d never see.
Thank gosh for the day-time talk shows of the 1960's and '70's.
Yes
Never knew she song this on a show,
One of my favorites.❤
the amazing Aretha!! Love you my Queen Aretha!
There was NO genre Aretha couldn't sing!
SO TRUE!!!
Go Queen Of Soul Aretha Franklin😎.
QUEEN!
Hate When The Queen Lip Sync
However
SHE IS THE FREAKING GREATEST SINGER EVER!!!!
THANK GOD FOR THIS GIFT FROM GOD HIMSELF!
This was the disco era. Everybody in the music industry started lip syncing.

Mr. Steven....
She was so brilliant. No one has even caught up to her. No artist.
Wow.

I've always loved this cut on the album. Surprising that she lip-syncs here, as she surely could've done it live!
On Dinah 1977-1979, all musical guests lipped sync. I'm not sure why.
@@BlackMusicArchiveLive , but Aretha didn`t lip sync `A Song for You` from this same episode.
@@christhomas5761 This performance is from 1977. "A Song For You" is from 1975. She's not wearing the same outfit or wig.
@@BlackMusicArchiveLive , Yes that`s true, thanks

This is called scatting , not mumbling meant to say she is scatting
The name of the song is call, "Mumbles" not "Scatting."
Aretha lip-syncing?!
they always made her lip sync ….she never chose to.
Many shows required Artist to lip sync. She lip synced on American Band Stand, Solid Gold, Soul Train ..etc
@@antd8259 No she didn’t lip sync on the soul train show when she did Rock Steady, Daydreaming
@@shonmosley4215 on soul train she also performed master of eyes and she did lip sync that song.
@@arethasD6belt Ummm ok
This was the start of her career when she started Lipp-Synching
No, on Dinah (1977-79) and other shows like American Bandstand, all guest lip-synced, it was not up to the artist.
