That phonebook line is often used to indicate a poor text redeemed by the performer. The King Curtis version is great, too, and pretty similar. Sub out her vocal for his sax.

The tune is one of The Band’s finest. What I’m saying is Aretha can sing anything and make it hers even this Robertson/Helm classic.

Cool interpretation of the song, and further proof that Aretha could sing the phonebook, and make it a great record.

Looking forward to loading Christmas tunes into my iPod in a week or so.
Her version of Joy To The World is one of my holiday favorites, and one of her best recordings that I know of. Blasts it out of the park.
