Description
Arethas Franklins position as soul musics premier female vocalist was consolidated by this album. Her strident reading of Don Covays Chain of Fools set the tone for a collection on which the singer unveiled several stellar original compositions and reinterpreted a batch of classic songs. Franklins gospel roots were clearly displayed on the anthem-like People Get Ready while her interpretation of Natural Woman showed both vulnerable and assertive qualities. Lady Soul captures a performer at the peak of her power, restating her ability to take material and make it uniquely her own.
