i love Aretha Franklin and her Box set as I have said many a time is my all time favorite Box set and I also have her on the Mount Rushmore of Female Artists,etc..

however if you are casual about her or like another female artist more then what keeps Aretha being the Queen of Soul to you?

also where do you come down on her singles?

her albums?

her diversity as a artist that has branched into other styles of Music?

is Aretha more of your parents or Grandparents thing or do you hold her as the Queen of soul and think of her when you say the word Soul?
