Everybody's floored by your voice.

00:00:35,890 --> 00:00:37,149
She ain't old enough to
travel on the Gospel Circuit.
23
00:00:37,150 --> 00:00:38,309
The road's a wild place now.
24
00:00:39,650 --> 00:00:40,979
I'm always going to protect you,
25
00:00:40,980 --> 00:00:42,580

Was I good?
44
00:01:51,220 --> 00:01:52,719
Woo, are you kidding me?
You were on fire up there.
45
00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:53,969
Well, they weren't clapping much.
46
00:01:53,970 --> 00:01:55,009
Well, that's cause they don't know
47
00:01:55,010 --> 00:01:56,139
how to show they love.
48
00:01:56,140 --> 00:01:58,229
But you know who does.
49
00:01:58,230 --> 00:01:59,849
Why don't you take a load off,

00:01:59,850 --> 00:02:00,979
I'm going to hit up the club manager,
51
00:02:00,980 --> 00:02:02,229
talk about getting us paid.
52
00:02:02,230 --> 00:02:03,609
I'm going to freshen up first, baby.

00:02:03,610 --> 00:02:06,330
Okay. You did your thing, girl.
54
00:02:06,780 --> 00:02:08,340
Mm-hmm.

You going to rub
my feet when we get home.

Well, whatever my baby needs.

Champagne for the lady?
62
00:03:00,290 --> 00:03:02,079
Are you sure we should
be spending all this cash?
63
00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:03,879
Oh, nothing is
too good for my best girl.

You know I sing at the Tropical tonight.
67
00:03:09,010 --> 00:03:11,009
I almost sold out the house.
68
00:03:11,010 --> 00:03:12,719
21, that's a big one.
69
00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:14,589
I think things are going
to change for me this year.

Well, you know, Daddy
always said good things come

72
00:03:17,810 --> 00:03:19,219

00:08:53,890 --> 00:08:55,389
Thank you, bless you, thank you so much.
185
00:08:55,390 --> 00:08:56,479
Reverend, Reverend, Reverend,
186
00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:57,649
it's always good to meet you.
187
00:08:57,650 --> 00:08:59,729
Your radio program is a blessing.
188
00:08:59,730 --> 00:09:01,229
We listen to it every week.
189
00:09:01,230 --> 00:09:03,939
And now to see you in person,
190
00:09:03,940 --> 00:09:06,670
please accept this as an
expression of our gratitude.
191
00:09:07,410 --> 00:09:10,199
Yes, I've got a sweet tooth
and it's going to be satisfied,
192
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:12,130
thank you so much.
193
00:09:14,870 --> 00:09:17,459
Hey, Little Re. I'm Ronny.
194
00:09:17,460 --> 00:09:19,079
How you feel about your first time?
195
00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:20,999
It wasn't very good.
196
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:24,919
Nah, you have a beautiful
voice and it's just going to get better.
197
00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:27,320
- Think so?
- I know so.
198
00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:29,889
Thank you.
199
00:09:29,890 --> 00:09:31,780
You're welcome. Keep your head up.
200
00:09:39,690 --> 00:09:42,420
I'm going to call it the Freedom March.
201
00:09:42,570 --> 00:09:44,359
As Gandhi marches people to the sea,
202
00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:45,689
this summer I'm marching our people
203
00:09:45,690 --> 00:09:46,939
through the streets of Detroit.
204
00:09:46,940 --> 00:09:48,949
Folks onboard, businesses contribute,
205
00:09:48,950 --> 00:09:51,159
we going to make change happen
because we going to demand it.
206
00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:52,909
Nobody brings
people together like you do.
207
00:09:52,910 --> 00:09:55,159
It'll be the biggest
freedom march in history.
208
00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:57,959
You mean in the state of Michigan.
209
00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:02,289
No, I mean in this country
because enough is enough.
210
00:10:02,290 --> 00:10:04,650
Everybody's coming onboard,
not just in Detroit.
211
00:10:05,300 --> 00:10:06,589
That's why I'm traveling
around to churches like
212
00:10:06,590 --> 00:10:07,919
the one I'm preaching out at tonight.
213
00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:08,840
Daddy, I don't want to say...
214
00:10:08,841 --> 00:10:10,259
To spread the work.
215
00:10:10,260 --> 00:10:12,009
Reverend King's helping
me drum up support coming to
216
00:10:12,010 --> 00:10:15,059
my march and you know all the things
that I've done, done for that boy.
217
00:10:15,060 --> 00:10:16,809
- Yeah.
- Uh-huh, you know that boy.
218
00:10:16,810 --> 00:10:18,559
He owe me.
219
00:10:18,560 --> 00:10:21,479
Though a man like Dr. King
really should have his own march.
220
00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:24,290
I mean that would really get a turnout.
221
00:10:27,150 --> 00:10:29,050
Sit down, baby.
222
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:45,419
Daddy, I know you wanted me
to open up before your sermon tonight...
223
00:10:45,420 --> 00:10:47,509
- Mmm-hmm.
- But I can't.
224
00:10:47,510 --> 00:10:51,570
I got her an important
audition at the Village Beacon.
225
00:10:56,060 --> 00:10:58,979
You canceling on me?
You gave me your word, baby.
226
00:10:58,980 --> 00:11:01,189
It's for a producer,
The Steve Allen Show.
227
00:11:01,190 --> 00:11:03,099
He's only in town for one night.
228
00:11:03,100 --> 00:11:06,519
I'm moving things
forward for myself, you know.
229
00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:09,100
Ted got me booked so the
producers could see me live in action.
230
00:11:10,860 --> 00:11:13,420
You can come meet us for a drink after.
231
00:11:13,570 --> 00:11:16,659
You should be playing at
bigger clubs than that hole-in-the-wall.
232
00:11:16,660 --> 00:11:21,180
You sang at the Newport Jazz Festival.
233
00:11:21,540 --> 00:11:23,289
It's a nice place to be singing, Daddy.
234
00:11:23,290 --> 00:11:27,379
Baby, if I didn't send
money every month you wouldn't
235
00:11:27,380 --> 00:11:29,379
be able to afford to be singing.
236
00:11:29,380 --> 00:11:31,629
I pay for your rent, I
pay for your electric bill,
237
00:11:31,630 --> 00:11:33,929
I pay for the meal that's on this plate.
238
00:11:33,930 --> 00:11:35,339
We don't need your money.
239
00:11:35,340 --> 00:11:39,820
Oh. Are you going
to be in his stable now, huh?
240
00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:49,779
You don't have to come
if you don't want to, Daddy.
241
00:11:49,780 --> 00:11:53,710
We'd understand if you were
too tired after your flight.
242
00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:08,539
My girl can sing, right?
243
00:12:08,540 --> 00:12:10,049
What'd I tell you,
my baby's out of sight.
244
00:12:10,050 --> 00:12:13,009
You're a wonderful singer, Ms. Franklin.
245
00:12:13,010 --> 00:12:15,110
Thank you.
It means a lot coming from you.
246
00:12:15,970 --> 00:12:17,049
These are for you to keep.
247
00:12:17,050 --> 00:12:18,509
It's her four records on Columbia.
248
00:12:18,510 --> 00:12:21,429
She had two top ten
hits on the R&B charts.
249
00:12:21,430 --> 00:12:23,139
Your song choice
tonight was interesting,
250
00:12:23,140 --> 00:12:25,439
why the Al Jolson tune?
251
00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:28,809
Well, back in the day
my father and I used to love it.
252
00:12:28,810 --> 00:12:30,370
Kind of hokey.
253
00:12:32,030 --> 00:12:33,920
Let's get you another drink.
254
00:12:36,910 --> 00:12:37,989
Glad to meet you.
255
00:12:37,990 --> 00:12:39,029
Reverend Franklin.
256
00:12:39,030 --> 00:12:40,449
You missed my song, Daddy.
257
00:12:40,450 --> 00:12:42,789
I'm sure you brought the house down.
258
00:12:42,790 --> 00:12:45,539
- How was your sermon?
- Oh, it was all right.
259
00:12:45,540 --> 00:12:48,629
I'm sure they're
all excited for your march.
260
00:12:48,630 --> 00:12:51,749
Yes, yes, they are.
261
00:12:51,750 --> 00:12:54,129
So, what do you think?
She's got quite a voice, huh?
262
00:12:54,130 --> 00:12:56,009
My baby girl is on the rise.
263
00:12:56,010 --> 00:12:58,339
You know, your records
just don't capture the energy
264
00:12:58,340 --> 00:12:59,969
you bring in your live performance.
265
00:12:59,970 --> 00:13:01,679
Maybe I'm just better in person.
266
00:13:01,680 --> 00:13:04,679
Aretha's been soloing in
church since she was 12 years old,
267
00:13:04,680 --> 00:13:06,849
not to mention all the
years on the Gospel Circuit.
268
00:13:06,850 --> 00:13:08,229
Let's get down to the nitty gritty.
269
00:13:08,230 --> 00:13:09,609
When can she be on the show?
270
00:13:09,610 --> 00:13:11,729
She's got a couple open
dates the next few weeks.
271
00:13:11,730 --> 00:13:13,729
I remember John Hammond
telling me about you after your
272
00:13:13,730 --> 00:13:15,319
first record came out.
273
00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:16,859
Very talented.
274
00:13:16,860 --> 00:13:18,199
Thank you.
275
00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:20,720
Let's keep in touch, Ms. Franklin.
276
00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:25,749
Now what did he mention Hammond for?
277
00:13:25,750 --> 00:13:28,709
That man ain't lift a finger
to help you get on the show.
278
00:13:28,710 --> 00:13:31,190
That was his nice way of saying no.
279
00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:34,509
There's a way to talk to these people.
280
00:13:34,510 --> 00:13:35,969
You, you can't be too pushy.
281
00:13:35,970 --> 00:13:37,509
Okay, you know what.
282
00:13:37,510 --> 00:13:39,089
I don't know why you two are
acting like it didn't go over.
283
00:13:39,090 --> 00:13:41,049
He loved you and he
wants you on the show.
284
00:13:41,050 --> 00:13:43,280
We're going straight
to the top, that's it.
285
00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:46,660
Drinks on me, drinks on me.
286
00:13:49,690 --> 00:13:52,819
You wonder why things ain't hitting?
287
00:13:52,820 --> 00:13:56,439
You're getting bad advice.
288
00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:59,880
He's hustling for, for us.
289
00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:02,619
He's hustling for me.
290
00:14:02,620 --> 00:14:05,159
But it's the wrong kind of hustle, baby.
291
00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:08,430
He runs women.
Don't act like you don't know.
292
00:14:11,210 --> 00:14:12,999
You gotta step away from him, baby,
293
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:15,600
he's dragging you down.
294
00:14:21,010 --> 00:14:24,150
Where's he off to?
295
00:14:25,850 --> 00:14:28,280
Sit down, baby.
296
00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:33,460
Let me get you another.
297
00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:51,919
You should have
been at the radio station this morning.
298
00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:54,020
WKMG, remember?
299
00:14:54,290 --> 00:14:55,749
Mr. Hammond, it won't happen again.
300
00:14:55,750 --> 00:14:58,089
We screwed up.
301
00:14:58,090 --> 00:15:00,879
Ted and I we're still like
newlyweds, waking up late,
302
00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:02,799
you know, staying out all night.
303
00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:05,429
Actually, as her manager, it
was my job to make sure she was there.
304
00:15:05,430 --> 00:15:07,259
She had a late show last night.
305
00:15:07,260 --> 00:15:10,729
A producer from
Steve Allen wanted to see her.
306
00:15:10,730 --> 00:15:12,439
Our plan was to wait on that.
307
00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:14,519
But why wait?
308
00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:17,269
He said they'd be in touch.
309
00:15:17,270 --> 00:15:18,609
Sally?
310
00:15:18,610 --> 00:15:20,069
Yes, Mr. Hammond?
311
00:15:20,070 --> 00:15:21,739
Can you get
me Norm Chaseman over at ABC,
312
00:15:21,740 --> 00:15:23,449
head of booking for Steve Allen?
313
00:15:23,450 --> 00:15:25,159
Right away.
314
00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:27,029
It wasn't a question of if we could book
315
00:15:27,030 --> 00:15:28,199
you for Steve Allen.
316
00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:29,409
It was a question of when?
317
00:15:29,410 --> 00:15:30,619
Exactly.
318
00:15:30,620 --> 00:15:32,579
Now, I know we haven't
had the kind of hit that
319
00:15:32,580 --> 00:15:34,579
an artist of your caliber deserves.
320
00:15:34,580 --> 00:15:36,539
Which is why Ted and I are here today.
321
00:15:36,540 --> 00:15:39,560
We, we're so excited to find out what
your plans are for this next record.
322
00:15:39,670 --> 00:15:42,839
Good. Because
we're building a career here.
323
00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:44,469
It's a daily grind.
324
00:15:44,470 --> 00:15:46,820
Whatever we book you for,
you've gotta show up.
325
00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:50,370
Your sister, Erma, she
never misses a promo date.
326
00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:53,099
Mr. Hammond, I assure you.
327
00:15:53,100 --> 00:15:55,500
I'm not afraid of hard work,
328
00:15:56,560 --> 00:15:57,939
I hope that's clear.
329
00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:01,740
I have Norm Chaseman on the line.
330
00:16:02,070 --> 00:16:04,090
Norm. How's the swing?
331
00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:07,930
Yeah? So, listen.
332
00:16:08,620 --> 00:16:11,140
We talked about a slot for
Aretha Franklin, you remember?
333
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:13,209
Yeah.
334
00:16:13,210 --> 00:16:15,560
She's more than ready,
what have you got open?
335
00:16:17,420 --> 00:16:19,709
Yes, that'll work.
336
00:16:19,710 --> 00:16:21,259
No, let's book it.
337
00:16:21,260 --> 00:16:24,230
Oh, she's going to be
a great draw for you guys.
338
00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:27,070
Thanks. Yeah, you too.
339
00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:32,070
Your next television appearance, booked.
340
00:16:33,390 --> 00:16:35,689
Thank you, Mr. Hammond.
341
00:16:35,690 --> 00:16:39,210
Now, about your next album.
342
00:16:54,290 --> 00:16:56,789
It sounds a lot like my last record.
343
00:16:56,790 --> 00:16:58,209
All jazz.
344
00:16:58,210 --> 00:17:00,749
You have an orchestra inside of you and
345
00:17:00,750 --> 00:17:04,169
we want to compliment that
to surround you with sound.
346
00:17:04,170 --> 00:17:05,259
I want more than that.
347
00:17:05,260 --> 00:17:06,429
Look at Elvis.
348
00:17:06,430 --> 00:17:09,089
He's got gospel hits
and rockabilly hits.
349
00:17:09,090 --> 00:17:10,679
I mean Aretha's as good as Elvis.
350
00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:12,389
Hell, she's better.
351
00:17:12,390 --> 00:17:14,679
I can't be a
throwback, times are changing.
352
00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:17,599
Sounds like you want to
keep trying a little bit of everything.
353
00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:20,899
I mean the last time it
was tender, moving, swinging.
354
00:17:20,900 --> 00:17:23,819
Why can't she try different
things to see what sticks?
355
00:17:23,820 --> 00:17:25,899
Because nothing seems to stick.
356
00:17:25,900 --> 00:17:27,199
It didn't chart the way we hoped.
357
00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:28,779
Because you're all over the place.
358
00:17:28,780 --> 00:17:31,119
You gotta let me establish
you in a particular vein.
359
00:17:31,120 --> 00:17:33,199
You are a jazz singer.
360
00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:35,230
Mr. Hammond, there's got to be
361
00:17:35,254 --> 00:17:37,499
more for me than just
another jazz record.
362
00:17:37,500 --> 00:17:39,249
What about Sam Cooke?
363
00:17:39,250 --> 00:17:40,629
He brings down the house.
364
00:17:40,630 --> 00:17:42,379
His music is for the
lovers and the fighters.
365
00:17:42,380 --> 00:17:43,549
He can sing anything.
366
00:17:43,550 --> 00:17:46,339
I can do that; I know I can.
367
00:17:46,340 --> 00:17:48,969
How about I give you
my version of Foggy Day?
368
00:17:48,970 --> 00:17:50,799
It sounds to me
like you want to be Judy Garland.
369
00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:54,769
No. But why not? Come on, Mr. Hammond.
370
00:17:54,770 --> 00:17:57,559
You and I both know that I'm
going places and so I deserve
371
00:17:57,560 --> 00:17:59,349
to be compared to the best.
372
00:17:59,350 --> 00:18:02,309
I want gold records
and I need songs that I,
373
00:18:02,310 --> 00:18:04,149
I can make a killing with.
374
00:18:04,150 --> 00:18:06,029
You want a hit
record and I know a thing or
375
00:18:06,030 --> 00:18:07,649
two about what works.
376
00:18:07,650 --> 00:18:10,670
I want to be on that wall.
377
00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:19,390
Okay. Okay. Fine.
378
00:18:19,670 --> 00:18:23,129
If you want to be Judy
Garland, let's try it.
379
00:18:23,130 --> 00:18:25,749
And if we can't sell records,
380
00:18:25,750 --> 00:18:28,770
you can always go
back to recording gospel.
381
00:18:38,430 --> 00:18:41,750
- Ya'll look good, alright.
- Now look who's here.
382
00:18:43,110 --> 00:18:44,729
Good to see ya'll.
383
00:18:44,730 --> 00:18:47,649
. _
384
00:18:47,650 --> 00:18:49,189
What's goin' on man, how you doin'?
385
00:18:49,190 --> 00:18:50,989
Good to see you, good to see you.
386
00:18:50,990 --> 00:18:53,220
Alright, sister come over this way man.
387
00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:56,409
You were good last night now,
388
00:18:56,410 --> 00:18:58,119
where's the next show, Tuscaloosa?
389
00:18:58,120 --> 00:19:00,709
Hey, what's goin' on man, how you doin'?
390
00:19:00,710 --> 00:19:02,669
Alright, alright.
391
00:19:02,670 --> 00:19:05,419
I want to be just like you, Ms. Clara.
392
00:19:05,420 --> 00:19:06,919
Can you teach me how?
393
00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:08,959
Well, first you've got to study all the
394
00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:10,719
singers that you like.
395
00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:13,900
If you borrow from them and then
you mix in what you already got.
396
00:19:15,010 --> 00:19:16,809
Re, leave Ms. Clara alone.
397
00:19:16,810 --> 00:19:18,349
Go wait with the young people.
398
00:19:18,350 --> 00:19:20,349
Ms. Clara and I've got some
church business to attend to.
399
00:19:20,350 --> 00:19:23,019
- Yes, Daddy.
- Mmm-hmm.
400
00:19:23,020 --> 00:19:25,939
Tell you what, on the
second leg of the trip
401
00:19:25,940 --> 00:19:29,460
I have my car and you and I
can ride from place to place.
402
00:19:29,780 --> 00:19:31,449
- Sounds like fun.
- Oh, good.
403
00:19:31,450 --> 00:19:33,630
You want to hold onto this for me?
404
00:19:37,950 --> 00:19:41,010
? I'm gonna be colored all my life ?
405
00:19:41,910 --> 00:19:45,770
? I am gonna be mmm
colored all my life ?
406
00:19:46,460 --> 00:19:48,480
? Yes I am gonna be ?
407
00:19:49,340 --> 00:19:52,839
? Colored all my life
and I ain't got time to ?
408
00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:55,440
? Take no mess from you ?
409
00:19:59,220 --> 00:20:00,639
You want to sing with me?
410
00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:01,849
Maybe later.
411
00:20:01,850 --> 00:20:06,099
Not every time we
sing will be in a tent.
412
00:20:06,100 --> 00:20:08,689
Sure, was pretty.
413
00:20:08,690 --> 00:20:10,229
You playing dress-up?
414
00:20:10,230 --> 00:20:11,529
Ms. Clara gave it to me.
415
00:20:11,530 --> 00:20:12,989
Well, it looks good.
416
00:20:12,990 --> 00:20:16,779
I really shouldn't
be wearing it, I'm only 12.
417
00:20:16,780 --> 00:20:19,829
They're like royalty, ain't they?
418
00:20:19,830 --> 00:20:21,749
Think they'll get married?
419
00:20:21,750 --> 00:20:23,850
I hope so.
420
00:20:25,330 --> 00:20:27,419
You blushing for real now?
421
00:20:27,420 --> 00:20:29,560
Come on, girl, let's get on the bus.
422
00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:39,860
? What a friend we have in Jesus ?
423
00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:43,269
? All ?
424
00:20:43,270 --> 00:20:44,270
Sing it girl.
425
00:20:44,271 --> 00:20:46,729
? Our sins and griefs to bear ?
426
00:20:46,730 --> 00:20:48,960
? Our griefs to bear ?
427
00:20:49,150 --> 00:20:54,380
? All because we do not carry ?
428
00:20:56,070 --> 00:21:00,470
? Everything to God in prayer ?
429
00:21:01,410 --> 00:21:03,249
That's right.
430
00:21:03,250 --> 00:21:07,329
? Everything to God in prayer ?
431
00:21:07,330 --> 00:21:09,390
That's right.
432
00:21:11,380 --> 00:21:12,560
She's great.
433
00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:18,900
We going have to all start
calling you the baby singer for long.
434
00:21:19,180 --> 00:21:21,849
Mm-hmm, you letting
your light shine, little Re.
435
00:21:21,850 --> 00:21:23,889
That's why I brought
you so you can watch,
436
00:21:23,890 --> 00:21:25,309
listen, and learn.
437
00:21:25,310 --> 00:21:27,309
I just pretended I was Ms. Clara Ward.
438
00:21:27,310 --> 00:21:29,519
Oh, you following
in my singing footsteps
439
00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:31,439
and you're doing me proud.
440
00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:34,040
Ladies and gentlemen, Mrs. Lena Horne.
441
00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:39,489
? I've wined and
dined on Mulligan stew ?
442
00:21:39,490 --> 00:21:42,880
? And never asked for turkey
as I hitched and hiked ?
443
00:21:43,580 --> 00:21:46,289
I like how she moves.
She's graceful, feminine.
444
00:21:46,290 --> 00:21:49,369
Ladies, drinks.
445
00:21:49,370 --> 00:21:51,339
She's got the gown;
she's got the glamour.
446
00:21:51,340 --> 00:21:54,339
Which makes up for the
fact that she cannot sing.
447
00:21:54,340 --> 00:21:55,879
She's got a beautiful voice.
448
00:21:55,880 --> 00:22:01,700
? I was never at a party where
they honored Noel Ca-ad ?
449
00:22:02,390 --> 00:22:06,070
? But social circles
spin too fast for me ?
450
00:22:07,230 --> 00:22:10,500
Now girl, you know
I should just shut right up.
451
00:22:10,980 --> 00:22:13,229
Look at us trying to break
into the music business and
452
00:22:13,230 --> 00:22:14,880
not getting nowhere.
453
00:22:15,030 --> 00:22:18,420
? I get to hungry for dinner at eight ?
454
00:22:18,740 --> 00:22:20,239
You know I have six singles on epic
455
00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:22,069
and not one has charted.
456
00:22:22,070 --> 00:22:24,829
Lena's got dozens and a room
full of rich people paying to see her.
457
00:22:24,830 --> 00:22:26,079
She's a star.
458
00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:28,640
? I never bother with people I hate ?
459
00:22:28,870 --> 00:22:31,499
She speaks her mind,
got something special.
460
00:22:31,500 --> 00:22:33,390
And we don't?
461
00:22:34,540 --> 00:22:38,020
? I don't like crap games
with barons and earls ?
462
00:22:38,970 --> 00:22:42,570
? Won't go to Harlem
in ermine and pearls ?
463
00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:44,139
Don't tell me he's pimping again.
464
00:22:44,140 --> 00:22:45,639
Okay, I won't tell you.
465
00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:47,179
I thought he quit.
466
00:22:47,180 --> 00:22:50,240
Well, my music isn't doing much either.
467
00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:52,769
My records barely
getting on the R&B charts
468
00:22:52,770 --> 00:22:54,229
and that doesn't pay the rent.
469
00:22:54,230 --> 00:22:55,729
Well, Daddy's still sending you money.
470
00:22:55,730 --> 00:22:57,069
Less and less.
471
00:22:57,070 --> 00:22:59,699
- What about your advance?
- I spent it.
472
00:22:59,700 --> 00:23:01,510
Give us a minute?
473
00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:06,380
? I'm all alone when I lower my lamp ?
474
00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:10,430
? That's why the lady... ?
475
00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:12,919
You know this
producer I talked to earlier,
476
00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:15,249
he is a huge fan of yours.
477
00:23:15,250 --> 00:23:18,049
You are this close to breaking out,
478
00:23:18,050 --> 00:23:19,770
just keep your eye on the prize, right.
479
00:23:21,930 --> 00:23:24,110
Let me see that smile, come on.
480
00:23:25,260 --> 00:23:27,410
You know I love that smile.
481
00:23:28,770 --> 00:23:30,099
I want gowns.
482
00:23:30,100 --> 00:23:31,100
Okay.
483
00:23:31,101 --> 00:23:32,100
And I want dance lessons.
484
00:23:32,101 --> 00:23:33,649
Okay.
485
00:23:33,650 --> 00:23:35,399
And I want elocution,
I want to be more like Lena.
486
00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:37,019
Well, it's going to cost you.
487
00:23:37,020 --> 00:23:39,460
Can we take a loan from a bank?
488
00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:41,489
Look, I got the money figured out.
489
00:23:41,490 --> 00:23:43,609
You know I always take care of business.
490
00:23:43,610 --> 00:23:46,409
I don't like your side business.
491
00:23:46,410 --> 00:23:51,890
I do what I gotta do so you
get to do what you want to do.
492
00:23:53,710 --> 00:23:55,629
I don't like it either,
493
00:23:55,630 --> 00:23:58,270
but I do it because I care about you.
494
00:23:59,630 --> 00:24:01,339
I'm going to get you those gowns.
495
00:24:01,340 --> 00:24:05,030
? Until the real thing ?
496
00:24:07,100 --> 00:24:12,740
? Comes along ?
497
00:24:24,650 --> 00:24:25,739
And that was
498
00:24:25,740 --> 00:24:27,699
Until the Real Thing Comes Along
499
00:24:27,700 --> 00:24:30,760
the seductive new single from
jazz vocalist Miss Aretha Franklin
500
00:24:31,330 --> 00:24:32,909
who is live with us in the studio.
501
00:24:32,910 --> 00:24:34,289
Well, thank you so much, Uncle Terry.
502
00:24:34,290 --> 00:24:35,749
It's a pleasure to be here.
503
00:24:35,750 --> 00:24:37,629
Ms. Franklin,
why don't you help our listeners
504
00:24:37,630 --> 00:24:39,039
get to know you a bit.
505
00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:41,669
What was life like before
you came to the Big Apple?
506
00:24:41,670 --> 00:24:43,719
Well, I grew up
singing on the Gospel Circuit
507
00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:45,089
all over the south.
508
00:24:45,090 --> 00:24:47,389
My daddy was a
preacher and my biggest hero.
509
00:24:47,390 --> 00:24:49,389
That's a lot
of traveling for a little girl.
510
00:24:49,390 --> 00:24:50,929
Well, I think it was a blessing.
511
00:24:50,930 --> 00:24:53,269
I got the chance to sing to a
lot of different folk and I got
512
00:24:53,270 --> 00:24:56,769
the opportunity to practice
being on stage which is a lot
513
00:24:56,770 --> 00:24:58,189
harder than it looks.
514
00:24:58,190 --> 00:24:59,960
It was a great way to cut my teeth.
515
00:25:00,230 --> 00:25:01,779
What have you got coming up?
516
00:25:01,780 --> 00:25:03,529
Next Friday, I, I'm
going to be doing the midnight
517
00:25:03,530 --> 00:25:05,069
gig at the Hudson Gate.
518
00:25:05,070 --> 00:25:07,529
Following in the footsteps of Lena Horne
519
00:25:07,530 --> 00:25:08,989
and Billie Holiday.
520
00:25:08,990 --> 00:25:10,659
It does feel very
special to be singing on the
521
00:25:10,660 --> 00:25:12,079
stage where they started out.
522
00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:13,449
I'm really excited about it.
523
00:25:13,450 --> 00:25:15,959
Now, I've heard a secret about you.
524
00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:17,789
You've booked your next TV gig.
525
00:25:17,790 --> 00:25:19,839
Well, yes, that's right.
526
00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:22,419
I'm going to be on The Steve Allen Show.
527
00:25:22,420 --> 00:25:24,379
And a little
birdy told me your new album
528
00:25:24,380 --> 00:25:26,419
is going to be a
little bit of everything,
529
00:25:26,420 --> 00:25:28,219
some show tunes, some jazz.
530
00:25:28,220 --> 00:25:32,200
Have you decided which version
of Aretha gets to sing on TV?
531
00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:35,979
Well, there's only one Aretha and
532
00:25:35,980 --> 00:25:38,790
she gets to sing what she wants.
533
00:25:50,370 --> 00:25:52,779
Now, the waltz is
the first step that's going to
534
00:25:52,780 --> 00:25:56,390
get you where you want to go.
535
00:25:57,500 --> 00:26:00,230
Let's take it from the top.
536
00:26:00,460 --> 00:26:02,249
Keep your head up, one, oh.
537
00:26:02,250 --> 00:26:04,419
Three, one.
538
00:26:04,420 --> 00:26:06,509
It's okay, stay with me.
539
00:26:06,510 --> 00:26:08,629
That's right. Look at me.
540
00:26:08,630 --> 00:26:10,929
One, slowly, there you go.
541
00:26:10,930 --> 00:26:12,429
Okay, I'm getting it.
542
00:26:12,430 --> 00:26:15,030
That's right, that's beautiful, yeah.
543
00:26:17,770 --> 00:26:20,700
This dress that
we shot this in, I, I love.
544
00:26:21,150 --> 00:26:23,569
I thought I would need to
get something off the rack but
545
00:26:23,570 --> 00:26:25,790
then I decided I had to
have something custom made.
546
00:26:26,150 --> 00:26:28,109
Mmm-hmm, I mean,
if you're going to go out there,
547
00:26:28,110 --> 00:26:29,489
you've got to get out there right.
548
00:26:29,490 --> 00:26:31,069
That's right.
549
00:26:31,070 --> 00:26:33,409
All the money I've
spent, hair, nails, makeup, clothes.
550
00:26:33,410 --> 00:26:35,119
It cost money to look good.
551
00:26:35,120 --> 00:26:37,039
Yes, it does.
552
00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:39,749
Although, all the money I've
spent it ain't really paid off yet.
553
00:26:39,750 --> 00:26:41,879
Oh, same here. But it will, yeah.
554
00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:44,730
God willing.
555
00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:47,629
Careers not where it
needs to be and until then we
556
00:26:47,630 --> 00:26:49,549
going to look good,
we going to feel good.
557
00:26:49,550 --> 00:26:50,470
Yes, we are.
558
00:26:50,471 --> 00:26:52,589
Yes.
559
00:26:52,590 --> 00:26:56,870
Oh, Re, you know,
sometimes I look at you, girl,
560
00:26:57,140 --> 00:26:59,639
you are recording for Columbia.
561
00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:02,769
And it's like do I even have a chance?
562
00:27:02,770 --> 00:27:04,769
Sometimes I look at
you and you're recording at Epic
563
00:27:04,770 --> 00:27:09,380
and I think the same thing.
564
00:27:09,950 --> 00:27:13,720
All right, Re, you've
got that TV gig coming up, right?
565
00:27:14,870 --> 00:27:16,678
So, how about you
come home to prepare and
566
00:27:16,702 --> 00:27:18,510
then you could help
Daddy with the march.
567
00:27:18,700 --> 00:27:20,329
I'm not coming to the march.
568
00:27:20,330 --> 00:27:22,289
Are you mad at Daddy?
569
00:27:22,290 --> 00:27:23,749
No.
570
00:27:23,750 --> 00:27:27,690
I, I got to work and I'm
trying to set myself up here.
571
00:27:28,340 --> 00:27:33,820
And I haven't had the
support that I need so far and
572
00:27:34,010 --> 00:27:36,429
I'm trying, trying to do it on my own.
573
00:27:36,430 --> 00:27:39,620
Yeah. It's hard trying to find your way.
574
00:27:51,700 --> 00:27:53,710
Thank you, Jesus.
575
00:27:55,120 --> 00:27:57,119
I'm going to get exactly
what I want, when I want.
576
00:27:57,120 --> 00:27:59,430
Oh girl, yes.
577
00:28:01,290 --> 00:28:03,999
Excuse me, Sister May.
578
00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:05,499
Have you seen my daddy?
579
00:28:05,500 --> 00:28:09,730
Oh, the last
time we saw him was at 14-F.
580
00:28:10,340 --> 00:28:11,730
She ain't got no clue.
581
00:28:23,310 --> 00:28:27,189
? Well you the cutest
thing that I ever seen ?
582
00:28:27,190 --> 00:28:29,109
? I really love your peaches gonna ?
583
00:28:29,110 --> 00:28:30,939
? Shake your tree ?
584
00:28:30,940 --> 00:28:32,960
? Love, me love ?
585
00:29:06,140 --> 00:29:08,040
Ms. Ward.
586
00:29:08,940 --> 00:29:11,479
Sweetie, what are you
doing out here at this hour?
587
00:29:11,480 --> 00:29:13,529
You need to get back to your
room before your daddy sees you.
588
00:29:13,530 --> 00:29:14,649
Where are you going?
589
00:29:14,650 --> 00:29:15,859
I just left a party.
590
00:29:15,860 --> 00:29:19,760
But you, young lady,
are going to bed, go on.
591
00:29:23,830 --> 00:29:27,600
Keep going, straight to your room.
592
00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:30,999
? To have a good time ?
593
00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:34,690
? Wild boyfriends like
to lose their minds ?
594
00:29:36,090 --> 00:29:39,900
? Wild men dig me
but I love a cool one ?
595
00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:44,070
? Wild men dig me
but I love a cool one ?
596
00:29:44,350 --> 00:29:46,229
Hey, hey, look. Ya'll look who's here.
597
00:29:46,230 --> 00:29:48,059
Girl you can sing.
598
00:29:48,060 --> 00:29:50,019
And you cute as all get out, too, girl.
599
00:29:50,020 --> 00:29:51,729
Baby, they say you're
going to be a real star.
600
00:29:51,730 --> 00:29:55,340
A real star. Get me another drink, baby.
601
00:29:56,190 --> 00:29:57,949
- I got you.
- Thank you, baby.
602
00:29:57,950 --> 00:29:59,779
? Oh-wee ?
603
00:29:59,780 --> 00:30:02,409
? They can scream and break down ?
604
00:30:02,410 --> 00:30:04,220
? But they don't kill me ?
605
00:30:04,910 --> 00:30:07,079
? Well they can romp and stomp ?
606
00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:09,060
? Well they can rock and roll ?
607
00:30:09,670 --> 00:30:11,789
You empty handed.
608
00:30:11,790 --> 00:30:13,669
I'm not thirsty.
609
00:30:13,670 --> 00:30:15,770
Try this. It's sweet.
610
00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:25,740
It's like a Shirley Temple
with a touch of Saturday night.
611
00:30:26,470 --> 00:30:27,929
Fun, right?
612
00:30:27,930 --> 00:30:31,729
Heard you singing
today, you sang beautiful.
613
00:30:31,730 --> 00:30:34,290
Thank you, you sing good, too.
614
00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:37,920
I think you like your drink, mm-hmm.
615
00:30:39,150 --> 00:30:41,170
Want to dance?
616
00:30:41,950 --> 00:30:43,770
Now, now man what you over there doing?
617
00:30:48,830 --> 00:30:52,270
Yea, come on now,
ya'll look good. Alright.
618
00:31:25,120 --> 00:31:29,010
Mmm-mmm-mmm.
619
00:31:48,140 --> 00:31:50,120
Ah.
620
00:31:50,350 --> 00:31:52,059
Daddy, I don't feel so good.
621
00:31:52,060 --> 00:31:53,519
Yeah?
622
00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:56,250
My tummy hurts.
623
00:31:57,190 --> 00:31:58,779
Well, I bet you wish
you had stayed in the room
624
00:31:58,780 --> 00:32:01,290
last night like I told you, huh?
625
00:32:05,450 --> 00:32:10,340
Here. Drink that.
626
00:32:13,790 --> 00:32:16,060
You'll feel better after a while.
627
00:32:16,210 --> 00:32:18,060
Go on.
628
00:32:18,670 --> 00:32:21,110
Mmhmm, let's get ready.
629
00:32:22,550 --> 00:32:25,900
We got to show up and show
out for God no matter what.
630
00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:28,299
You understand?
631
00:32:28,300 --> 00:32:29,759
Yes, Daddy.
632
00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:31,780
All right.
633
00:32:37,650 --> 00:32:40,920
God is good. And all the time.
634
00:32:41,650 --> 00:32:43,239
God is good!
635
00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:45,949
Some people say how can I, Reverend,
636
00:32:45,950 --> 00:32:49,180
how can I identify with
Jesus, he's the son of God.
637
00:32:50,740 --> 00:32:55,010
I say you relate to him
because of His humanness.
638
00:32:55,290 --> 00:33:01,600
God made Jesus in such a
way that he got hungry.
639
00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:05,780
He was tired.
640
00:33:06,470 --> 00:33:08,530
He got lonely.
641
00:33:09,350 --> 00:33:12,950
And when the darkness
was falling in on Him,
642
00:33:13,680 --> 00:33:17,200
when He was up on that cross,
He thought of His mother.
643
00:33:17,980 --> 00:33:20,160
He thought of His father.
644
00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:23,649
When the sins of the
entire world past, present,
645
00:33:23,650 --> 00:33:25,960
and future was up on His shoulders,
646
00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:29,340
he thought of others.
647
00:33:31,240 --> 00:33:34,140
That's the God I'm going to trust.
648
00:33:34,540 --> 00:33:36,430
That's the God I'm going to trust.
649
00:33:37,580 --> 00:33:39,100
Will you trust Him?
650
00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:41,520
Will you trust Him?
651
00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:47,690
? I will trust in the Lord ?
652
00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:51,070
Will you trust him?
653
00:33:51,350 --> 00:33:55,120
? Trust in the Lord ?
654
00:33:56,930 --> 00:33:59,229
Preparation are underway for tomorrow's
655
00:33:59,230 --> 00:34:00,660
Walk to Freedom...
656
00:34:01,020 --> 00:34:03,000
Re. Re?
657
00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:09,109
Reverend CL Franklin...
658
00:34:09,110 --> 00:34:10,949
Girl, you still
got rollers in your hair?
659
00:34:10,950 --> 00:34:13,369
Daddy's got 1,000 people at the
house getting ready for the march.
660
00:34:13,370 --> 00:34:14,579
Get dressed.
661
00:34:14,580 --> 00:34:15,580
Cecil's going to pick
us up from the airport.
662
00:34:15,581 --> 00:34:16,949
I told you I'm not going.
663
00:34:16,950 --> 00:34:17,910
There's going to be
plenty of people at the march.
664
00:34:17,911 --> 00:34:19,499
Daddy won't even notice I'm gone.
665
00:34:19,500 --> 00:34:21,499
Oh, of course he will.
666
00:34:21,500 --> 00:34:23,919
And he'll miss his favorite daughter.
667
00:34:23,920 --> 00:34:26,540
Daddy stopped sending
money so I'm twisting in the wind.
668
00:34:30,340 --> 00:34:31,759
Oh, girl, you
ain't twisting in the wind.
669
00:34:31,760 --> 00:34:34,179
You got Ted.
670
00:34:34,180 --> 00:34:37,240
Daddy can have his march without me.
671
00:34:43,310 --> 00:34:45,229
Don't cut him off.
672
00:34:45,230 --> 00:34:49,489
This is an important event not
just for him but for all of us.
673
00:34:49,490 --> 00:34:51,659
And he's your father.
674
00:34:51,660 --> 00:34:54,869
Daddy cut me off because
I didn't want him to run my life.
675
00:34:54,870 --> 00:34:56,289
Girl, come on and get dressed.
676
00:34:56,290 --> 00:34:58,119
- I'm not going!
- Re, get dressed!
677
00:34:58,120 --> 00:34:59,619
All right, okay.
678
00:34:59,620 --> 00:35:03,430
You know what you need to leave
before you miss your flight.
679
00:35:07,090 --> 00:35:10,530
Go on now. I'm staying right here.
680
00:35:10,970 --> 00:35:12,679
Reverend Franklin hopes the
681
00:35:12,680 --> 00:35:15,240
march will bring
about much needed change.
682
00:35:22,980 --> 00:35:25,710
From Hollywood,
it's The Steven Allen Show.
683
00:35:26,690 --> 00:35:28,069
From the Hollywood Playhouse,
684
00:35:28,070 --> 00:35:29,939
we bring you 90 minutes of madness
685
00:35:29,940 --> 00:35:32,409
and music with guest stars, singer.
686
00:35:32,410 --> 00:35:33,949
It's cold in here.
687
00:35:33,950 --> 00:35:35,909
I told the stage manager
he need to turn down the AC.
688
00:35:35,910 --> 00:35:37,659
I know you don't like
it too cold when you sing.
689
00:35:37,660 --> 00:35:39,079
You nervous?
690
00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:42,100
I'm good. Is my daddy out there?
691
00:35:42,500 --> 00:35:44,629
Yeah, I saw him.
You know who else is out there?
692
00:35:44,630 --> 00:35:46,749
Jerry Wexler from Atlantic Records.
693
00:35:46,750 --> 00:35:49,110
You're drawing the big shots, girl.
694
00:35:49,630 --> 00:35:51,629
Five-minute intermission for set change.
695
00:35:51,630 --> 00:35:53,690
Set change, five minutes, everyone.
696
00:35:54,340 --> 00:35:57,150
Dancers stage left,
get ready for your entrance.
697
00:35:57,310 --> 00:36:00,599
My daddy showing up even
though I didn't go to his march,
698
00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:01,809
you think he's still mad at me?
699
00:36:01,810 --> 00:36:04,349
Look, you are going to be great.
700
00:36:04,350 --> 00:36:06,229
That's all that counts.
701
00:36:06,230 --> 00:36:07,609
You're looking well, Reverend.
702
00:36:07,610 --> 00:36:09,149
And you.
703
00:36:09,150 --> 00:36:11,439
It's been a while
since we've seen each other.
704
00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:14,420
Several years.
705
00:36:14,700 --> 00:36:16,819
I'm treating your daughter well.
706
00:36:16,820 --> 00:36:19,199
I hope there are no hard feelings.
707
00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:21,140
Water under the bridge.
708
00:36:21,870 --> 00:36:26,180
I appreciate she's still
under contract at Columbia.
709
00:36:28,210 --> 00:36:30,089
Congratulations on your march.
710
00:36:30,090 --> 00:36:32,419
We did a great service for the movement.
711
00:36:32,420 --> 00:36:34,504
Very admirable..
712
00:36:34,505 --> 00:36:35,839
This young lady has
713
00:36:35,840 --> 00:36:37,849
been singing chiefly
for Columbia Records.
714
00:36:37,850 --> 00:36:39,469
One of the most exciting,
715
00:36:39,470 --> 00:36:41,519
young singers in the business today.
716
00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:43,309
Let's make her feel right at home,
717
00:36:43,310 --> 00:36:45,410
here is Miss Aretha Franklin.
718
00:36:48,440 --> 00:36:52,170
? Skylark ?
719
00:36:54,070 --> 00:37:00,010
? Have you anything to say to me? ?
720
00:37:04,660 --> 00:37:10,060
? Won't you tell me
where my love can be? ?
721
00:37:14,970 --> 00:37:19,740
? Is there a meadow in the mist ?
722
00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:24,660
? Skylark ?
723
00:37:35,650 --> 00:37:37,760
- Big Momma?
- Hmm?
724
00:37:38,320 --> 00:37:40,199
I think something's wrong with me.
725
00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:41,779
I haven't been feeling so good.
726
00:37:41,780 --> 00:37:43,739
Oh, what's the matter baby?
727
00:37:43,740 --> 00:37:46,999
Well, my tummy's been
feeling sick and my monthly
728
00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:49,560
hasn't come, not for a while.
729
00:37:50,500 --> 00:37:52,879
Well, how long has it been?
730
00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:55,360
- Four months.
- Get up, come here.
731
00:38:02,390 --> 00:38:05,660
Do you feel different inside
like everything's moving faster?
732
00:38:06,350 --> 00:38:08,189
I don't know.
733
00:38:08,190 --> 00:38:10,899
Erma says when you don't get
your monthly you have a baby.
734
00:38:10,900 --> 00:38:13,689
Do you know how you get a baby?
735
00:38:13,690 --> 00:38:16,069
Who did this to you?
736
00:38:16,070 --> 00:38:18,489
A boy at school?
737
00:38:18,490 --> 00:38:20,949
Someone on the road?
Who did this to you, little Re?
738
00:38:20,950 --> 00:38:22,829
What's that?
739
00:38:22,830 --> 00:38:24,409
Little Re isn't feeling well.
740
00:38:24,410 --> 00:38:26,749
Oh yea?
741
00:38:26,750 --> 00:38:30,140
I might have a baby inside me.
742
00:38:33,670 --> 00:38:35,419
How you know?
743
00:38:35,420 --> 00:38:38,520
She hasn't had
her monthly and I feel a bump.
744
00:38:43,350 --> 00:38:46,200
Son.
745
00:38:57,400 --> 00:39:00,800
What in God's name happened?
746
00:39:01,030 --> 00:39:03,970
The road is a wild place, Momma.
747
00:39:04,950 --> 00:39:07,619
I wanted her to stay home.
748
00:39:07,620 --> 00:39:09,289
You insisted.
749
00:39:09,290 --> 00:39:12,169
She's too young to be out there.
750
00:39:12,170 --> 00:39:16,400
All these children are
living without a mother
751
00:39:16,630 --> 00:39:20,169
and the first time that I
let that precious child out of
752
00:39:20,170 --> 00:39:22,490
my sight this happens?
753
00:39:23,510 --> 00:39:26,139
You weren't watching her.
754
00:39:26,140 --> 00:39:29,330
You let her fall pray to God knows what.
755
00:39:31,270 --> 00:39:36,920
I did keep my eye on
her, Momma, as best I could.
756
00:39:40,780 --> 00:39:47,260
The boy, the boy
who did this must be held accountable.
757
00:39:59,050 --> 00:40:05,240
We could waste time and
chase after worldly justice or
758
00:40:07,100 --> 00:40:11,160
we could simply accept that
this is a part of the mission
759
00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:18,870
that God, God has for her.
760
00:40:21,860 --> 00:40:27,680
? Skylark ?
761
00:40:28,620 --> 00:40:34,350
? I don't know if you can
find all of these things ?
762
00:40:36,580 --> 00:40:42,690
? But my heart is riding on your wings ?
763
00:40:49,180 --> 00:40:51,780
? You see them ?
764
00:40:54,230 --> 00:40:58,559
? Anywhere? ?
765
00:41:05,910 --> 00:41:09,010
We'll be right
back after a word from our sponsors.
766
00:41:09,620 --> 00:41:13,680
I don't know why she decided
to sing that particular song.
767
00:41:13,950 --> 00:41:16,289
Well, she sings what she wants.
768
00:41:16,290 --> 00:41:19,560
One minute insisting on showtunes
and here she is doing a jazz number.
769
00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:24,360
I can't reason with her.
770
00:41:25,300 --> 00:41:27,230
Nor can I.
771
00:41:32,810 --> 00:41:35,639
How you feeling, baby?
772
00:41:35,640 --> 00:41:37,439
All right, I guess.
773
00:41:37,440 --> 00:41:39,649
We're going to take you to Dr. Steward.
774
00:41:39,650 --> 00:41:43,069
Okay. Are you mad?
775
00:41:43,070 --> 00:41:45,689
No, baby.
776
00:41:45,690 --> 00:41:49,699
And this is not going
to stop you from singing
777
00:41:49,700 --> 00:41:51,659
or from going to school.
778
00:41:51,660 --> 00:41:54,659
Isn't that right, Momma?
779
00:41:54,660 --> 00:41:57,579
We're all going to pitch in,
780
00:41:57,580 --> 00:42:01,440
and this baby will be the family's baby.
781
00:42:01,840 --> 00:42:03,379
That's right.
782
00:42:03,380 --> 00:42:08,530
This is not going to stop you
from what you were meant to do.
783
00:42:11,890 --> 00:42:15,410
Meant to do.
784
00:42:25,610 --> 00:42:28,319
That was a wonderful performance.
785
00:42:28,320 --> 00:42:29,409
I wish I could stay.
786
00:42:29,410 --> 00:42:30,659
I think I sang really well.
787
00:42:30,660 --> 00:42:32,659
You always sing well.
788
00:42:32,660 --> 00:42:35,079
But we haven't found it yet, have we?
789
00:42:35,080 --> 00:42:36,449
Not from lack of trying.
790
00:42:36,450 --> 00:42:38,409
So, let's get you back into the studio
791
00:42:38,410 --> 00:42:40,039
and put our heads together.
792
00:42:40,040 --> 00:42:41,499
- Hammond.
- Ted.
793
00:42:41,500 --> 00:42:44,339
Listen, I, I wish I could
linger but I have another event.
794
00:42:44,340 --> 00:42:45,310
Congratulations.
795
00:42:45,311 --> 00:42:47,790
Glad you could make it.
796
00:42:49,510 --> 00:42:52,320
On your birthday last year,
you remember what you wished for?
797
00:42:53,350 --> 00:42:55,349
Have you seen my father?
798
00:42:55,350 --> 00:42:57,179
You said you wanted
to be on The Steve Allen Show
799
00:42:57,180 --> 00:42:58,889
and what did I say to you?
800
00:42:58,890 --> 00:43:01,349
I said I was going to
make your dreams come true.
801
00:43:01,350 --> 00:43:02,859
And now look at where we are.
802
00:43:02,860 --> 00:43:04,729
He made it all this
way, stayed for the show,
803
00:43:04,730 --> 00:43:06,819
and didn't stay for the party
which means he was either still
804
00:43:06,820 --> 00:43:08,989
mad at me or he thought
my performance was bad.
805
00:43:08,990 --> 00:43:10,149
Was it?
806
00:43:10,150 --> 00:43:12,550
No, baby, baby, baby, baby, no, come on.
807
00:43:13,120 --> 00:43:14,930
Mr. Wexler?
808
00:43:16,490 --> 00:43:17,999
I'm a big fan, Aretha.
809
00:43:18,000 --> 00:43:19,199
Ms. Franklin.
810
00:43:19,200 --> 00:43:21,619
Excuse me, Ms. Franklin.
811
00:43:21,620 --> 00:43:24,629
You know I've launched a few careers,
812
00:43:24,630 --> 00:43:26,299
Atlantic Records and me.
813
00:43:26,300 --> 00:43:28,459
We roll up our sleeves and we dig deep.
814
00:43:28,460 --> 00:43:30,839
This contract
with Columbia is almost up.
815
00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:33,400
What she does after
that, that's her call.
816
00:43:33,590 --> 00:43:35,139
Columbia's had a good run.
817
00:43:35,140 --> 00:43:37,389
But music is changing,
you've got to stay ahead of it
818
00:43:37,390 --> 00:43:39,269
or you're going to get left behind.
819
00:43:39,270 --> 00:43:40,939
Can I be honest?
820
00:43:40,940 --> 00:43:42,769
Yeah, please.
821
00:43:42,770 --> 00:43:46,620
Tonight, I wanted
to be wowed but I wasn't.
822
00:43:46,940 --> 00:43:48,399
And I don't think
the audience was either.
823
00:43:48,400 --> 00:43:49,779
Well, now you're just plain wrong.
824
00:43:49,780 --> 00:43:51,359
Skylark is going to be a classic.
825
00:43:51,360 --> 00:43:52,909
I'm trying everything I can.
826
00:43:52,910 --> 00:43:54,279
You know I work with Ray Charles.
827
00:43:54,280 --> 00:43:55,619
He's a genius.
828
00:43:55,620 --> 00:43:58,789
I could do for you what I did for Ray.
829
00:43:58,790 --> 00:44:01,499
I could help you find your sound.
830
00:44:01,500 --> 00:44:03,669
That's what I do.
831
00:44:03,670 --> 00:44:06,789
Now, let me ask you, what
kind of music do you really
832
00:44:06,790 --> 00:44:09,209
want to make, Ms. Franklin?
833
00:44:09,210 --> 00:44:12,549
I want to make hits, Mr. Wexler.
834
00:44:12,550 --> 00:44:14,839
You'll get there when you realize you're
835
00:44:14,840 --> 00:44:18,030
Aretha Franklin and nobody else.
836
00:44:19,600 --> 00:44:21,700
Pleasure.
837
00:44:25,350 --> 00:44:27,000
Let me freshen your drink.
838
00:44:37,450 --> 00:44:39,180
It's all yours.
839
00:45:01,270 --> 00:45:06,040
? How I got over How I got over ?
840
00:45:06,850 --> 00:45:11,790
? You know my soul looks back
in wonder how I got over ?
841
00:45:12,320 --> 00:45:17,130
? How I got over how I got over ?
842
00:45:18,030 --> 00:45:23,100
? You know my soul looks back
in wonder how I got over ?
843
00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:28,560
? Just as soon as I see Jesus
the man who made me free ?
844
00:45:29,460 --> 00:45:32,499
? Who know the man who
bled and suffered ?
845
00:45:32,500 --> 00:45:35,049
? You know he died for you and me. ?
846
00:45:35,050 --> 00:45:37,690
? I want to thank Him
because He brought me ?
847
00:45:37,970 --> 00:45:40,450
? I want to thank you Jesus
because you taught me ?
848
00:45:40,850 --> 00:45:43,870
? I want to thank you
because you care for me ?
849
00:45:44,060 --> 00:45:46,349
? I want to thank you
because you never left me ?
850
00:45:46,350 --> 00:45:48,370
? I wanna sing ?
851
00:45:48,520 --> 00:45:53,670
? I want to just shout this
evenin' my soul looks back ?
852
00:45:53,860 --> 00:45:57,449
? In wonder how I got over ?
853
00:45:57,450 --> 00:46:02,970
? How I got over how I got over ?
854
00:46:03,290 --> 00:46:08,270
? You know my soul looks back
in wonder how I got over ?
855
00:46:08,710 --> 00:46:13,650
? How I got over how I got over ?
856
00:46:14,710 --> 00:46:20,070
? You know my soul looks back
in wonder how I got over ?
857
00:46:25,971 --> 00:46:31,971
