Description of Spirit in the Dark
This album from 1970 includes five vibrant, self-penned Aretha classics, as well as songs by B.B. King, Dr. John, Jimmy Reed, and Carole King. Musicians include Brother Duane Allman, Big Star/Rolling Stones' session man Jim Dickinson, along with the Muscle Shoals rhythm section and the Dixie Flyers. The November 2002 issue of Mojo magazine said of this uplifting LP: 'triumphant....spiritual in immense proportions....defiant, jubilant'. Features liner notes by Richie Unterberger. Remastered at Fantasy studios from the original 1970 master recordings.One of Aretha's most committed-sounding albums--which, of course, is really saying something--the 1970 Spirit in the Dark remains among the high points of her Atlantic work. The breakup of her marriage may be an unspoken theme, but just as striking is her reinvention of well-known songs and motifs, even more dramatic here than usual. Both dovetail in her take on "The Thrill Is Gone," which climaxes on a surprising interpolation of the phrase "free at last." --Rickey Wright
