My fave Aretha....Blues Brothers clip.

One of my favorite films & she rocked it hard.

And if anybody knows- I thought she did some un-credited work with Frank Zappa-Is that true?

I love that movie. It's such an awesome big cartoon.

Aretha added a lot to the movie. One of the things that didn't make sense. After she told off Matt Guitar Murphy, why wasn't she invited into the band?

Amazing voice!
