• Originally released in 1972, Amazing Grace entered the Billboard Top Ten as soon as it was released and became one of the best-selling gospel records of all time and is, of course, also one of the most successful albums by the “Queen Of Soul”. It has now sold over 2 million copies in the USA alone and the artist has now received 18 Grammy awards, unbelievable!
  The album was recorded in a large Baptist church, with an extremely enthusiastic, rapt audience in the pews and a full, funky band as well as the Southern California Community Choir under the direction of Aretha’s mentor, Reverend James Cleveland. Her voice is melodic and full of the most intense emotion, yet clear and controlled – like a direct proclaimer of the Holy Spirit.Aretha’s father, the brilliant preacher Reverend C. L. Frank
