Spirit in the Dark
Spirit in the Dark is the seventeenth studio album by American singer Aretha Franklin, released in August, 1970, by Atlantic Records. It received critical acclaim, but met with sloping sales, despite continued hit singles.
"Don't Play That Song (You Lied)" hit No. 1 R&B, No. 11 Pop, and was another million selling 45 for Aretha. "Spirit in the Dark", peaked at No. 3 R&B and No. 23 on Billboard magazine's Hot 100. This was Aretha's first Atlantic album to fall short of the Top 20 but is still considered one of Aretha's classic Atlantic LPs.
In 1993, Rhino Records returned the album to print on compact disc. "Try Matty's" is used as the jingle for radio host Matt Siegel's Boston Kiss 108 show.
