Aretha Franklin – Who's Zoomin' Who (CD)

Aretha Franklin's 1985 commercial comeback proved she could move between gospel fire and pop sheen without losing an ounce of her authority. Produced largely by Narada Michael Walden, the record brought her a new generation of fans while longtime devotees heard the same iron-willed vocalist who had redefined soul two decades earlier. The title track became one of the defining singles of the MTV era, and the Eurythmics collaboration "Sisters Are Doin' It for Themselves" remains a genuine cultural moment.
