The opening track on Aretha’s fifteenth album from 1970 is a gospel-flavoured take on Dusty Springfield’s ‘Son of a Preacher Man,’ her church-piano playing and soaring vocals setting the mood for what follows. Pure, high-emotion, faithful Southern Soul, which includes goosebump-inducing covers of ‘Let It Be’ and ‘The Weight’ and an entirely transformed ‘Eleanor Rigby.’ At times slow-burning, at times full-throttled and sanctified, ‘This Girl…’ is comparable to Aretha’s peak-sixties albums.
