Aretha Franklin singing a song that I first heard on the Smithsonian collection of classic country music in a recording from the 1920s. The best-known gospel songs of the twentieth century tended to cross over between the black and white gospel traditions, and this song is no exception.
According to the YouTube page for this video, she was fourteen years old when this recording was made, but her voice and interpretive skills are very much as they were in her best-known recordings.
