Aretha Franklin at the Lincoln Memorial for
a 1993 Clinton Inaugural celebration.
A SHOW
OF RESPEC T
REMEMBERING
ARETHA FRANKLIN
The voice, as at home in a
spiritual as in a pop hit or an
aria, could evoke love, lust,
heartache, triumph, rage and
indignation—often in a single
song. A talent as celestial
as Aretha Franklin’s comes
along so rarely that, three
years after her death, people
are still trying to understand
its origins. That may explain
the renewed interest in the
Queen of Soul, the subject of
both a recent TV miniseries
and now a feature film,
Respect.
This special edition
of
People
looks at Franklin’s
life and remarkable career,
from singing at her preacher
father’s Detroit church
to performing at three
presidential Inaugurations.
Inarguably a music legend,
Franklin was also endearingly
relatable. She loved Wal-Mart.
Her soap operas.
Wheel of
Fortune,
for which she sang
in a 1994 ad. Because she
was so private, some fans
may have learned only from
obituaries that she lost her
mother at the age of 10 and
became a mother herself
three years later. How much
had trauma figured into her
gift? “The way she found to
express herself was through
her music,” says Jennifer
Hudson (interview page 84),
who plays Franklin in
Respect.
That, she suggests, is “why it
hits the way it hits to this day.”
