After 10 years at Columbia, Aretha Franklin signed with Atlantic Records in 1967 and unleashed a stunning array of hit singles during the mid sixties to the mid seventies including Respect, Chain Of Fools, Spanish Harlem and Until You Come Back To Me (That’s What I’m Going To Do).
Aretha signed with Arista in 1980 where Clive Davis restored her hit making status with United Together and Love All The Hurt Away reaching the top 10 of the Hot Soul Singles chart. Aretha’s third Arista album paired her with producer Luther Vandross. JUMP TO IT became her most successful album in a decade spending an incredible seven weeks at the #1 spot in the R&B album chart and reaching #23 on the Pop chart. It also spun off the #1 R&B hit title track single which also made #28 Pop, Aretha’s first top 40 showing since 1976.
LOVE ME RIGHT, the follow up single, became another successful R&B radio hit and the album was seen as a bold new direction and return to form for the Queen Of Soul.
