notes:

Aretha Franklin – Runnin’ Out of Fools is a soulful highlight from 

the early career of the legendary Aretha Franklin. Released in 1964 

on Columbia Records, this track appears on her sixth studio album 

Runnin’ Out of Fools, a record that blends R&B, soul and classic pop standards.

Produced by Clyde Otis and arranged by Belford Hendricks, the album 

showcases Franklin’s expressive vocal range well before she transitioned 

to Atlantic Records and achieved global fame as the Queen of Soul.
