Product description

Aretha Franklin's captivating live album, One Lord, One Faith, One Baptism, is a testament to the Queen of Soul's unparalleled talent and spiritual devotion. Recorded in July 1987 at the New Bethel Baptist Church in Detroit, Michigan, this sublime collection of gospel classics and soulful renditions is a masterclass in vocal excellence.

With a duration of 1 hour and 12 minutes, this album is a journey through the depths of Franklin's faith, featuring iconic tracks such as 'Jesus Hears Every Prayer', 'Surely God Is Able', and 'Higher Ground'. The album also includes special introductions by revered figures Rev. Jesse Jackson and Rev. Jaspar Williams, adding a touch of warmth and community to the proceedings.

Franklin's powerful voice soars on uplifting tracks like 'Oh Happy Day' and 'We Need Power', while her poignant rendition of 'Ave Maria' showcases her remarkable vocal range and control. The album's finale, 'Packing Up, Getting Ready to Go', features a stellar collaboration with Mavis Staples, Joe Ligon, and The Franklin Sisters, creating a truly unforgettable listening experience.

Released on 1 January 1987 via Arista, One Lord, One Faith, One Baptism is a seminal work that embodies the essence of soul, Motown, and jazz blues.
