That's good to know... thank you! I did email Rhino a
few months ago and ask if there were any plans to
release a Vol. 2 of "The Complete Atlantic Singles," and
they told me that, no, there were no plans to.

Awesome sounding collection. All Top 40 hits are the proper US single edits/mixes as far as I can tell with the possible exception of "You And I", which runs about 3:31 on this collection. I don't have a US 45, but my Canadian 45 runs 2:54, which is also the run time listed in Joel's Pop Annual.

"(Sweet Sweet Baby) Since You've Been Gone" does not have the dropout at 0:01.

I notice from Aaron's list of Aretha's mono Top 40 hits available on CD only in stereo prior to this release that they all hail from the period that Aretha's singles were still mono but her albums were only released in stereo. I wonder whether all previous releases of mono Aretha on CD were from mono album masters and that this is the first CD release using the single masters. (And that the mono album master of "Since You've Been Gone" has the dropout but the single master does not.)]]> Mon, 15 Oct 2018 15:07:41 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8937&PID=50329&title=aretha-franklin-atlantic-singles-mono#50329 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8937&PID=50287&title=aretha-franklin-atlantic-singles-mono#50287 Author: eriejwg

I always thought "Rock Steady", "Day Dreaming" and
"Spanish Harlem" were dedicated mono mixes. Not sure about
the others.]]> Tue, 09 Oct 2018 15:25:12 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8937&PID=50287&title=aretha-franklin-atlantic-singles-mono#50287 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8937&PID=50286&title=aretha-franklin-atlantic-singles-mono#50286 Author: smallworld

The 1970's stock singles are Stereo as a rule save for
promo copies which sometimes have mono folds for AM
airplay. ]]> Tue, 09 Oct 2018 12:11:56 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8937&PID=50285&title=aretha-franklin-atlantic-singles-mono#50285 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8937&PID=50283&title=aretha-franklin-atlantic-singles-mono#50283 Author: eriejwg

This has been released and sound quality is awesome.
Question, will there be a 1970s disc, covering 1971-1974
or so?]]> Mon, 08 Oct 2018 21:15:55 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8937&PID=50283&title=aretha-franklin-atlantic-singles-mono#50283 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8937&PID=49696&title=aretha-franklin-atlantic-singles-mono#49696 Author: aaronk

You're welcome.

I should add a point of clarification. I believe that "Queen of Soul box" in your listing refers to the 1992 box set Queen of Soul The Atlantic Recordings. "Prove It" is in stereo on the 1992 box.

In 2014, Warner released another Aretha box set titled The Queen of Soul. "Prove It" is in mono on the 2014 set.

The easiest way to find "Prove It" in mono is probably Rhino's standalone release of Aretha Arrives (1993).


Also, "Dr Feelgood" is double listed above. The second listing should be deleted.]]> Sat, 14 Jul 2018 14:39:44 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=8937&PID=49692&title=aretha-franklin-atlantic-singles-mono#49692
