Young, Gifted and Black

This is For the Record, and today we’re covering Aretha Franklin’s “Young, Gifted and Black” from 1972. Join us as we deep dive into the Queen of Soul’s sublime 18th studio album, breaking down the musical elements, key themes, history and context, and our own thoughts on the album. Were the 70s actually the best decade of music? Can a cover of a Beatles song be even better than the original? What do the boundary lines of genre really mean? Find out all this and more on this week’s episode.
