00:08:56,661 --> 00:08:57,805
it's always good to meet you.
184
00:08:57,829 --> 00:08:59,890
Your radio program
is a blessing.
185
00:08:59,914 --> 00:09:01,392
We listen to it every week.
186
00:09:01,416 --> 00:09:04,103
And now to see you in person,
187
00:09:04,127 --> 00:09:06,755
please accept this as an
expression of our gratitude.
188
00:09:07,589 --> 00:09:10,359
Yes, I've got a sweet tooth
and it's going to be satisfied,
189
00:09:10,383 --> 00:09:12,218
thank you so much.
190
00:09:15,055 --> 00:09:17,616
Hey, Little Re. I'm Ronny.
191
00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:19,243
How you feel about
your first time?
192
00:09:19,267 --> 00:09:21,162
It wasn't very good.
193
00:09:21,186 --> 00:09:25,082
Nah, you have
a beautiful voice and it's
just going to get better.
194
00:09:25,106 --> 00:09:27,400
- Think so?
- I know so.
195
00:09:28,902 --> 00:09:30,046
Thank you.
196
00:09:30,070 --> 00:09:31,863
You're welcome.
Keep your head up.
197
00:09:39,871 --> 00:09:42,499
I'm going to call
it the Freedom March.
198
00:09:42,749 --> 00:09:44,518
As Gandhi marches
people to the sea,
199
00:09:44,542 --> 00:09:45,853
this summer I'm
marching our people
200
00:09:45,877 --> 00:09:47,104
through the streets of Detroit.
201
00:09:47,128 --> 00:09:49,106
Folks onboard,
businesses contribute,
202
00:09:49,130 --> 00:09:51,317
we going to make change happen
because we going to demand it.
203
00:09:51,341 --> 00:09:53,069
Nobody brings
people together like you do.
204
00:09:53,093 --> 00:09:55,321
It'll be the biggest
freedom march in history.
205
00:09:55,345 --> 00:09:58,115
You mean in
the state of Michigan.
206
00:09:58,139 --> 00:10:02,453
No, I mean in this country
because enough is enough.
207
00:10:02,477 --> 00:10:04,729
Everybody's coming onboard,
not just in Detroit.
208
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:06,749
That's why I'm traveling
around to churches like
209
00:10:06,773 --> 00:10:08,084
the one I'm preaching
out at tonight.
210
00:10:08,108 --> 00:10:09,002
Daddy, I don't want to say...
211
00:10:09,026 --> 00:10:10,419
To spread the work.
212
00:10:10,443 --> 00:10:12,171
Reverend King's helping
me drum up support coming to
213
00:10:12,195 --> 00:10:15,216
my march and you know
all the things that I've
done, done for that boy.
214
00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:16,967
- Yeah.
- Uh‐huh, you know that boy.
215
00:10:16,991 --> 00:10:18,719
He owe me.
216
00:10:18,743 --> 00:10:21,639
Though a man like
Dr. King really should
have his own march.
217
00:10:21,663 --> 00:10:24,374
I mean that would
really get a turnout.
218
00:10:27,335 --> 00:10:29,129
Sit down, baby.
219
00:10:42,183 --> 00:10:45,579
Daddy, I know you
wanted me to open up before
your sermon tonight...
220
00:10:45,603 --> 00:10:47,665
- Mmm‐hmm.
- But I can't.
221
00:10:47,689 --> 00:10:51,651
I got her an important
audition at the Village Beacon.
222
00:10:56,239 --> 00:10:59,135
You canceling on me?
You gave me your word, baby.
223
00:10:59,159 --> 00:11:01,345
It's for a producer,
The Steve Allen Show.
224
00:11:01,369 --> 00:11:03,264
He's only in town for one night.
225
00:11:03,288 --> 00:11:06,684
I'm moving things
forward for myself, you know.
226
00:11:06,708 --> 00:11:09,188
Ted got me booked so the
producers could see me live in action.
227
00:11:11,045 --> 00:11:13,506
You can come meet
us for a drink after.
228
00:11:13,756 --> 00:11:16,819
You should be playing at
bigger clubs than that hole‐in‐the‐wall.
229
00:11:16,843 --> 00:11:21,264
You sang at the
Newport Jazz Festival.
230
00:11:21,723 --> 00:11:23,450
It's a nice place to be singing,
Daddy.
231
00:11:23,474 --> 00:11:27,538
Baby, if I didn't send
money every month you wouldn't
232
00:11:27,562 --> 00:11:29,540
be able to afford to be singing.
233
00:11:29,564 --> 00:11:31,792
I pay for your rent,
I pay for your electric bill,
234
00:11:31,816 --> 00:11:34,086
I pay for the meal
that's on this plate.
235
00:11:34,110 --> 00:11:35,504
We don't need your money.
236
00:11:35,528 --> 00:11:39,908
Oh. Are you going to
be in his stable now, huh?
237
00:11:46,706 --> 00:11:49,935
You don't have to
come if you don't want to, Daddy.
238
00:11:49,959 --> 00:11:53,796
We'd understand if you
were too tired after your flight.
239
00:12:07,101 --> 00:12:08,704
My girl can sing, right?
240
00:12:08,728 --> 00:12:10,206
What'd I tell you,
my baby's out of sight.
241
00:12:10,230 --> 00:12:13,167
You're a wonderful singer,
Ms. Franklin.
242
00:12:13,191 --> 00:12:15,193
Thank you. It
means a lot coming from you.
243
00:12:16,152 --> 00:12:17,213
These are for you to keep.
244
00:12:17,237 --> 00:12:18,672
It's her four records
on Columbia.
245
00:12:18,696 --> 00:12:21,592
She had two top ten
hits on the R&B charts.
246
00:12:21,616 --> 00:12:23,302
Your song choice
tonight was interesting,
247
00:12:23,326 --> 00:12:25,596
why the Al Jolson tune?
248
00:12:25,620 --> 00:12:28,974
Well, back in the day
my father and I used to love it.
249
00:12:28,998 --> 00:12:30,458
Kind of hokey.
250
00:12:32,210 --> 00:12:34,003
Let's get you another drink.
251
00:12:37,090 --> 00:12:38,150
Glad to meet you.
252
00:12:38,174 --> 00:12:39,193
Reverend Franklin.
253
00:12:39,217 --> 00:12:40,611
You missed my song, Daddy.
254
00:12:40,635 --> 00:12:42,947
I'm sure you
brought the house down.
255
00:12:42,971 --> 00:12:45,699
How was your sermon? Oh,
it was all right.
256
00:12:45,723 --> 00:12:48,786
I'm sure they're
all excited for your march.
257
00:12:48,810 --> 00:12:51,914
Yes, yes, they are.
258
00:12:51,938 --> 00:12:54,291
So, what do you think?
She's got quite a voice, huh?
259
00:12:54,315 --> 00:12:56,168
My baby girl is on the rise.
260
00:12:56,192 --> 00:12:58,504
You know,
your records just don't capture the energy
261
00:12:58,528 --> 00:13:00,130
you bring in your
live performance.
262
00:13:00,154 --> 00:13:01,840
Maybe I'm just better in person.
263
00:13:01,864 --> 00:13:04,843
Aretha's been soloing in
church since she was 12 years old,
264
00:13:04,867 --> 00:13:07,012
not to mention all the
years on the Gospel Circuit.
265
00:13:07,036 --> 00:13:08,389
Let's get down
to the nitty gritty.
266
00:13:08,413 --> 00:13:09,765
When can she be on the show?
267
00:13:09,789 --> 00:13:11,892
She's got a couple open
dates the next few weeks.
268
00:13:11,916 --> 00:13:13,894
I remember John Hammond
telling me about you after your
269
00:13:13,918 --> 00:13:15,479
first record came out.
270
00:13:15,503 --> 00:13:17,022
Very talented.
271
00:13:17,046 --> 00:13:18,357
Thank you.
272
00:13:18,381 --> 00:13:20,800
Let's keep in touch,
Ms. Franklin.
273
00:13:24,262 --> 00:13:25,906
Now what did he
mention Hammond for?
274
00:13:25,930 --> 00:13:28,867
That man ain't lift a finger
to help you get on the show.
275
00:13:28,891 --> 00:13:31,269
That was his
nice way of saying no.
276
00:13:33,021 --> 00:13:34,665
There's a way to
talk to these people.
277
00:13:34,689 --> 00:13:36,125
You, you can't be too pushy.
278
00:13:36,149 --> 00:13:37,668
Okay, you know what.
279
00:13:37,692 --> 00:13:39,253
I don't know why you two
are acting like it didn't go over.
280
00:13:39,277 --> 00:13:41,213
He loved you and he
wants you on the show.
281
00:13:41,237 --> 00:13:43,364
We're going straight to the top,
that's it.
282
00:13:44,907 --> 00:13:46,743
Drinks on me, drinks on me.
283
00:13:49,871 --> 00:13:52,975
You wonder why
things ain't hitting?
284
00:13:52,999 --> 00:13:56,603
You're getting bad advice.
285
00:13:56,627 --> 00:13:59,964
He's hustling for, for us.
286
00:14:00,423 --> 00:14:02,776
He's hustling for me.
287
00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:05,320
But it's the wrong kind of hustle,
baby.
288
00:14:05,344 --> 00:14:08,514
He runs women. Don't
act like you don't know.
289
00:14:11,392 --> 00:14:13,162
You gotta step away from him,
baby,
290
00:14:13,186 --> 00:14:15,688
he's dragging you down.
291
00:14:21,194 --> 00:14:24,238
Where's he off to?
292
00:14:26,032 --> 00:14:28,367
Sit down, baby.
293
00:14:31,788 --> 00:14:33,539
Let me get you another.
294
00:14:49,388 --> 00:14:52,076
You should have
been at the radio station this morning.
295
00:14:52,100 --> 00:14:54,102
WKMG, remember?
296
00:14:54,477 --> 00:14:55,913
Mr. Hammond,
it won't happen again.
297
00:14:55,937 --> 00:14:58,248
We screwed up.
298
00:14:58,272 --> 00:15:01,043
Ted and I we're still like newlyweds,
waking up late,
299
00:15:01,067 --> 00:15:02,961
you know, staying out all night.
300
00:15:02,985 --> 00:15:05,589
Actually, as her manager,
it was my job to make sure she was there.
301
00:15:05,613 --> 00:15:07,424
She had a late show last night.
302
00:15:07,448 --> 00:15:10,886
A producer from Steve
Allen wanted to see her.
303
00:15:10,910 --> 00:15:12,596
Our plan was to wait on that.
304
00:15:12,620 --> 00:15:14,681
But why wait?
305
00:15:14,705 --> 00:15:17,434
He said they'd be in touch.
306
00:15:17,458 --> 00:15:18,769
Sally?
307
00:15:18,793 --> 00:15:20,229
Yes, Mr. Hammond?
308
00:15:20,253 --> 00:15:21,897
Can you get
me Norm Chaseman over at ABC,
309
00:15:21,921 --> 00:15:23,607
head of booking for Steve Allen?
310
00:15:23,631 --> 00:15:25,317
Right away.
311
00:15:25,341 --> 00:15:27,194
It wasn't a
question of if we could book
312
00:15:27,218 --> 00:15:28,362
you for Steve Allen.
313
00:15:28,386 --> 00:15:29,571
It was a question of when?
314
00:15:29,595 --> 00:15:30,781
Exactly.
315
00:15:30,805 --> 00:15:32,741
Now,
I know we haven't had the kind of hit that
316
00:15:32,765 --> 00:15:34,743
an artist of your
caliber deserves.
317
00:15:34,767 --> 00:15:36,703
Which is why
Ted and I are here today.
318
00:15:36,727 --> 00:15:39,647
We, we're so excited to find out
what your plans are for this next record.
319
00:15:39,856 --> 00:15:43,001
Good. Because
we're building a career here.
320
00:15:43,025 --> 00:15:44,628
It's a daily grind.
321
00:15:44,652 --> 00:15:46,904
Whatever we book you for,
you've gotta show up.
322
00:15:47,947 --> 00:15:50,449
Your sister, Erma,
she never misses a promo date.
323
00:15:50,783 --> 00:15:53,262
Mr. Hammond, I assure you.
324
00:15:53,286 --> 00:15:55,580
I'm not afraid of hard work,
325
00:15:56,747 --> 00:15:58,100
I hope that's clear.
326
00:15:59,667 --> 00:16:01,827
I have
Norm Chaseman on the line.
327
00:16:02,253 --> 00:16:04,172
Norm. How's the swing?
328
00:16:05,464 --> 00:16:08,009
Yeah? So, listen.
329
00:16:08,801 --> 00:16:11,220
We talked about a slot for Aretha Franklin,
you remember?
330
00:16:12,180 --> 00:16:13,365
Yeah.
331
00:16:13,389 --> 00:16:15,641
She's more than ready,
what have you got open?
332
00:16:17,602 --> 00:16:19,872
Yes, that'll work.
333
00:16:19,896 --> 00:16:21,415
No, let's book it.
334
00:16:21,439 --> 00:16:24,317
Oh, she's going to be a
great draw for you guys.
335
00:16:24,859 --> 00:16:27,153
Thanks. Yeah, you too.
336
00:16:28,988 --> 00:16:32,158
Your next television appearance,
booked.
337
00:16:33,576 --> 00:16:35,846
Thank you, Mr. Hammond.
338
00:16:35,870 --> 00:16:39,290
Now, about your next album.
339
00:16:54,472 --> 00:16:56,950
It sounds a
lot like my last record.
340
00:16:56,974 --> 00:16:58,368
All jazz.
341
00:16:58,392 --> 00:17:00,913
You have
an orchestra inside of you and
342
00:17:00,937 --> 00:17:04,333
we want to compliment that
to surround you with sound.
343
00:17:04,357 --> 00:17:05,417
I want more than that.
344
00:17:05,441 --> 00:17:06,585
Look at Elvis.
345
00:17:06,609 --> 00:17:09,254
He's got gospel hits
and rockabilly hits.
346
00:17:09,278 --> 00:17:10,839
I mean Aretha's
as good as Elvis.
347
00:17:10,863 --> 00:17:12,549
Hell, she's better.
348
00:17:12,573 --> 00:17:14,843
I can't be a throwback,
times are changing.
349
00:17:14,867 --> 00:17:17,763
Sounds like you want
to keep trying a little bit of everything.
350
00:17:17,787 --> 00:17:21,058
I mean the last time it was tender,
moving, swinging.
351
00:17:21,082 --> 00:17:23,977
Why can't she try
different things to see what sticks?
352
00:17:24,001 --> 00:17:26,063
Because nothing seems to stick.
353
00:17:26,087 --> 00:17:27,356
It didn't
chart the way we hoped.
354
00:17:27,380 --> 00:17:28,941
Because
you're all over the place.
355
00:17:28,965 --> 00:17:31,276
You gotta let me establish
you in a particular vein.
356
00:17:31,300 --> 00:17:33,362
You are a jazz singer.
357
00:17:33,386 --> 00:17:37,658
Mr. Hammond, there's got to be
more for me than just another jazz record.
358
00:17:37,682 --> 00:17:39,409
What about Sam Cooke?
359
00:17:39,433 --> 00:17:40,786
He brings down the house.
360
00:17:40,810 --> 00:17:42,538
His music is for the
lovers and the fighters.
361
00:17:42,562 --> 00:17:43,705
He can sing anything.
362
00:17:43,729 --> 00:17:46,500
I can do that; I know I can.
363
00:17:46,524 --> 00:17:49,127
How about I give you
my version of Foggy Day?
364
00:17:49,151 --> 00:17:50,963
It sounds to me
like you want to be Judy Garland.
365
00:17:50,987 --> 00:17:54,925
No. But why not? Come on,
Mr. Hammond.
366
00:17:54,949 --> 00:17:57,719
You and I both know that I'm
going places and so I deserve
367
00:17:57,743 --> 00:17:59,513
to be compared to the best.
368
00:17:59,537 --> 00:18:02,474
I want gold records
and I need songs that I,
369
00:18:02,498 --> 00:18:04,309
I can make a killing with.
370
00:18:04,333 --> 00:18:06,186
You want a
hit record and I know a thing or
371
00:18:06,210 --> 00:18:07,813
two about what works.
372
00:18:07,837 --> 00:18:10,756
I want to be on that wall.
373
00:18:14,343 --> 00:18:19,473
Okay. Okay. Fine.
374
00:18:19,849 --> 00:18:23,287
If you want to be Judy Garland,
let's try it.
375
00:18:23,311 --> 00:18:25,914
And if we can't sell records,
376
00:18:25,938 --> 00:18:28,858
you can always go
back to recording gospel.
377
00:18:38,618 --> 00:18:41,829
- Ya'll look good,
alright. - Now look who's here.
378
00:18:43,289 --> 00:18:44,891
Good to see ya'll.
379
00:18:47,835 --> 00:18:49,354

how you doin'?
380
00:18:49,378 --> 00:18:51,148

381
00:18:51,172 --> 00:18:53,299
Alright,
sister come over this way man.
382
00:18:54,342 --> 00:18:56,570
You were good last night now,
383
00:18:56,594 --> 00:18:58,280
where's the next show,
Tuscaloosa?
384
00:18:58,304 --> 00:19:00,866
Hey, what's goin' on man,
how you doin'?
385
00:19:00,890 --> 00:19:02,826
Alright, alright.
386
00:19:02,850 --> 00:19:05,579
I want to be just like you,
Ms. Clara.
387
00:19:05,603 --> 00:19:07,080
Can you teach me how?
388
00:19:07,104 --> 00:19:09,124
Well,
first you've got to study all the
389
00:19:09,148 --> 00:19:10,876
singers that you like.
390
00:19:10,900 --> 00:19:13,986
If you borrow from them and then
you mix in what you already got.
391
00:19:15,196 --> 00:19:16,965
Re, leave Ms. Clara alone.
392
00:19:16,989 --> 00:19:18,508
Go wait with the young people.
393
00:19:18,532 --> 00:19:20,510
Ms. Clara and I've got some
church business to attend to.
394
00:19:20,534 --> 00:19:23,180
Yes, Daddy. Mmm‐hmm.

What was life like before
you came to the Big Apple?
501
00:24:41,855 --> 00:24:43,875
Well,
I grew up singing on the Gospel Circuit
502
00:24:43,899 --> 00:24:45,251
all over the south.
503
00:24:45,275 --> 00:24:47,545
My daddy was a preacher
and my biggest hero.
504
00:24:47,569 --> 00:24:49,547
That's a
lot of traveling for a little girl.
505
00:24:49,571 --> 00:24:51,091
Well, I think it was a blessing.
506
00:24:51,115 --> 00:24:53,426
I got the chance to sing to
a lot of different folk and I got
507
00:24:53,450 --> 00:24:56,930
the opportunity to practice
being on stage which is a lot
508
00:24:56,954 --> 00:24:58,348
harder than it looks.
509
00:24:58,372 --> 00:25:00,040
It was a great way
to cut my teeth.
510
00:25:00,416 --> 00:25:01,935

00:25:01,959 --> 00:25:03,687

515
00:25:09,174 --> 00:25:10,819
It does feel very
special to be singing on the
516
00:25:10,843 --> 00:25:12,237
stage where they started out.
517
00:25:12,261 --> 00:25:13,613

birdy told me your new album
523
00:25:24,565 --> 00:25:26,584

little bit of everything,

525
00:25:28,402 --> 00:25:32,281

of Aretha gets to sing on TV?
526
00:25:33,699 --> 00:25:36,136
Well,
there's only one Aretha and
527
00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:38,871
she gets to sing what she wants.
528
00:25:50,549 --> 00:25:52,944
Now,
the waltz is the first step that's going to
529
00:25:52,968 --> 00:25:56,472
get you where you want to go.
530
00:25:57,681 --> 00:26:00,309
Let's take it from the top.
531
00:26:00,642 --> 00:26:02,412
Keep your head up, one, oh.
532
00:26:02,436 --> 00:26:04,581
Three, one.
533
00:26:04,605 --> 00:26:06,666
It's okay, stay with me.
534
00:26:06,690 --> 00:26:08,793
That's right. Look at me.
535
00:26:08,817 --> 00:26:11,087
One, slowly, there you go.
536
00:26:11,111 --> 00:26:12,589
Okay, I'm getting it.
537
00:26:12,613 --> 00:26:15,115
That's right,
that's beautiful, yeah.
538
00:26:17,951 --> 00:26:20,788
This dress that we shot this in,
I, I love.
539
00:26:21,330 --> 00:26:23,725
I thought I would need to
get something off the rack but
540
00:26:23,749 --> 00:26:25,876
then I decided I had to have
something custom made.
541
00:26:26,335 --> 00:26:28,271
Mmm‐hmm, I mean,
if you're going to go out there,
542
00:26:28,295 --> 00:26:29,647
you've got to get
out there right.
543
00:26:29,671 --> 00:26:31,232
That's right.
544
00:26:31,256 --> 00:26:33,568
All the money I've spent,
hair, nails, makeup, clothes.
545
00:26:33,592 --> 00:26:35,278
It cost money to look good.
546
00:26:35,302 --> 00:26:37,197
Yes, it does.
547
00:26:37,221 --> 00:26:39,908
Although, all the money I've
spent it ain't really paid off yet.
548
00:26:39,932 --> 00:26:42,035
Oh,
same here. But it will, yeah.
549
00:26:42,059 --> 00:26:44,812
God willing.
550
00:26:45,145 --> 00:26:47,791
Careers not where
it needs to be and until then we
551
00:26:47,815 --> 00:26:49,709
going to look good,
we going to feel good.
552
00:26:49,733 --> 00:26:50,628
Yes, we are.
553
00:26:50,652 --> 00:26:52,754
Yes.
554
00:26:52,778 --> 00:26:56,949
Oh, Re, you know,
sometimes I look at you, girl,
555
00:26:57,324 --> 00:26:59,803
you are recording for Columbia.
556
00:26:59,827 --> 00:27:02,931
And it's like do I
even have a chance?
557
00:27:02,955 --> 00:27:04,933
Sometimes I look at
you and you're recording at Epic
558
00:27:04,957 --> 00:27:09,461
and I think the same thing.
559
00:27:10,129 --> 00:27:13,799
All right, Re,
you've got that TV gig coming up, right?
560
00:27:15,050 --> 00:27:18,595
So, how about you come home to prepare and
then you could help Daddy with the march.
561
00:27:18,887 --> 00:27:20,490
I'm not coming to the march.
562
00:27:20,514 --> 00:27:22,450
Are you mad at Daddy?
563
00:27:22,474 --> 00:27:23,910
No.
564
00:27:23,934 --> 00:27:27,771
I, I got to work and I'm
trying to set myself up here.
565
00:27:28,522 --> 00:27:33,902
And I haven't had the
support that I need so far and
566
00:27:34,194 --> 00:27:36,589
I'm trying,
trying to do it on my own.
567
00:27:36,613 --> 00:27:39,700
Yeah. It's
hard trying to find your way.
568
00:27:51,879 --> 00:27:53,797
Thank you, Jesus.
569
00:27:55,299 --> 00:27:57,277
I'm going to get exactly what I want,
when I want.
570
00:27:57,301 --> 00:27:59,511
Oh girl, yes.
571
00:28:01,471 --> 00:28:04,158
Excuse me, Sister May.
572
00:28:04,182 --> 00:28:05,660

573
00:28:05,684 --> 00:28:09,813

Yea, come on now,

Mmm‐mmm‐mmm.
613
00:31:48,323 --> 00:31:50,200
Ah.
614
00:31:50,534 --> 00:31:52,220
Daddy, I don't feel so good.
615
00:31:52,244 --> 00:31:53,679
Yeah?
616
00:31:53,703 --> 00:31:56,331
My tummy hurts.
617
00:31:57,374 --> 00:31:58,935
Well,
I bet you wish you had stayed in the room
618
00:31:58,959 --> 00:32:01,378

619
00:32:05,632 --> 00:32:10,428
Here. Drink that.
620
00:32:13,974 --> 00:32:16,143

Go on.
622
00:32:18,854 --> 00:32:21,189
Mmhmm, let's get ready.
623
00:32:22,732 --> 00:32:25,986
We got to show up and show
out for God no matter what.
624
00:32:27,028 --> 00:32:28,464
You understand?
625
00:32:28,488 --> 00:32:29,924
Yes, Daddy.
626
00:32:29,948 --> 00:32:31,867
All right.
627
00:32:37,831 --> 00:32:41,001
God is good. And all the time.
628
00:32:41,835 --> 00:32:43,396
God is good!
629
00:32:43,420 --> 00:32:46,107
Some people say how can I,
Reverend,
630
00:32:46,131 --> 00:32:49,259
how can I identify with Jesus,
he's the son of God.
631
00:32:50,927 --> 00:32:55,098
I say you relate to him
because of His humanness.
632
00:32:55,473 --> 00:33:01,688
God made Jesus in such
a way that he got hungry.
633
00:33:04,065 --> 00:33:05,859
He was tired.
634
00:33:06,651 --> 00:33:08,612
He got lonely.
635
00:33:09,529 --> 00:33:13,033
And when the darkness
was falling in on Him,
636
00:33:13,867 --> 00:33:17,287
when He was up on that cross,
He thought of His mother.
637
00:33:18,163 --> 00:33:20,248
He thought of His father.
638
00:33:20,707 --> 00:33:23,811
When the sins of the entire world past,
present,
639
00:33:23,835 --> 00:33:26,046
and future was up
on His shoulders,
640
00:33:26,421 --> 00:33:29,424
he thought of others.
641
00:33:31,426 --> 00:33:34,221
That's the God
I'm going to trust.
642
00:33:34,721 --> 00:33:36,514
That's the God
I'm going to trust.
643
00:33:37,766 --> 00:33:39,184
Will you trust Him?
644
00:33:40,185 --> 00:33:41,603

Walk to Freedom...

Re. Re?
651
00:34:06,586 --> 00:34:09,273
Reverend CL Franklin...
652
00:34:09,297 --> 00:34:11,108
Girl,
you still got rollers in your hair?
653
00:34:11,132 --> 00:34:13,527
Daddy's got 1,000 people at the
house getting ready for the march.
654
00:34:13,551 --> 00:34:14,737
Get dressed.
655
00:34:14,761 --> 00:34:15,738
Cecil's going to pick
us up from the airport.
656
00:34:15,762 --> 00:34:17,114
I told you I'm not going.
657
00:34:17,138 --> 00:34:18,075
There's going to be plenty
of people at the march.
658
00:34:18,099 --> 00:34:19,659
Daddy won't even
notice I'm gone.
659
00:34:19,683 --> 00:34:21,661
Oh, of course he will.
660
00:34:21,685 --> 00:34:24,080
And he'll miss his
favorite daughter.
661
00:34:24,104 --> 00:34:26,624
Daddy stopped sending
money so I'm twisting in the wind.
662
00:34:30,527 --> 00:34:31,921
Oh, girl,
you ain't twisting in the wind.
663
00:34:31,945 --> 00:34:34,340
You got Ted.
664
00:34:34,364 --> 00:34:37,325
Daddy can
have his march without me.
665
00:34:43,498 --> 00:34:45,393
Don't cut him off.
666
00:34:45,417 --> 00:34:49,647
This is an important event
not just for him but for all of us.
667
00:34:49,671 --> 00:34:51,816
And he's your father.
668
00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:55,027
Daddy cut me off
because I didn't want him to run my life.
669
00:34:55,051 --> 00:34:56,445
Girl, come on and get dressed.
670
00:34:56,469 --> 00:34:58,281
I'm not going! Re, get dressed!
671
00:34:58,305 --> 00:34:59,782
All right, okay.
672
00:34:59,806 --> 00:35:03,518
You know what you need to
leave before you miss your flight.
673
00:35:07,272 --> 00:35:10,609
Go on now. I'm
staying right here.
674
00:35:11,151 --> 00:35:12,837
Reverend Franklin hopes the
675
00:35:12,861 --> 00:35:15,322
march will bring about
much needed change.
676
00:35:23,163 --> 00:35:25,790
From Hollywood,
it's The Steven Allen Show.
677
00:35:26,875 --> 00:35:28,227
From the Hollywood Playhouse,
678
00:35:28,251 --> 00:35:30,104
we bring you 90
minutes of madness
679
00:35:30,128 --> 00:35:32,565
and music with guest stars,
singer.
680
00:35:32,589 --> 00:35:34,108
It's cold in here.
681
00:35:34,132 --> 00:35:36,068
I told the stage manager
he need to turn down the AC.
682
00:35:36,092 --> 00:35:37,820
I know you don't like it
too cold when you sing.
683
00:35:37,844 --> 00:35:39,238
You nervous?
684
00:35:39,262 --> 00:35:42,182
I'm good. Is my daddy out there?
685
00:35:42,682 --> 00:35:44,785
Yeah,
I saw him. You know who else is out there?
686
00:35:44,809 --> 00:35:46,912
Jerry Wexler from
Atlantic Records.
687
00:35:46,936 --> 00:35:49,189
You're drawing the big shots,
girl.
688
00:35:49,814 --> 00:35:51,792
Five‐minute
intermission for set change.
689
00:35:51,816 --> 00:35:53,777
Set change,
five minutes, everyone.
690
00:35:54,527 --> 00:35:57,238
Dancers stage left,
get ready for your entrance.
691
00:35:57,489 --> 00:36:00,760
My daddy showing up
even though I didn't go to his march,
692
00:36:00,784 --> 00:36:01,969
you think he's still mad at me?
693
00:36:01,993 --> 00:36:04,513
Look, you are going to be great.
694
00:36:04,537 --> 00:36:06,390
That's all that counts.
695
00:36:06,414 --> 00:36:07,767
You're looking well, Reverend.
696
00:36:07,791 --> 00:36:09,310
And you.
697
00:36:09,334 --> 00:36:11,604
It's been a
while since we've seen each other.
698
00:36:11,628 --> 00:36:14,506
Several years.
699
00:36:14,881 --> 00:36:16,984
I'm treating your daughter well.
700
00:36:17,008 --> 00:36:19,362
I hope there are
no hard feelings.
701
00:36:19,386 --> 00:36:21,221
Water under the bridge.
702
00:36:22,055 --> 00:36:26,267
I appreciate she's still
under contract at Columbia.
703
00:36:28,395 --> 00:36:30,247
Congratulations on your march.
704
00:36:30,271 --> 00:36:32,583
We did a great
service for the movement.
705
00:36:32,607 --> 00:36:34,192
Very admirable.
706
00:36:36,736 --> 00:36:38,005
This young lady has
been singing chiefly for Columbia Records.
707
00:36:38,029 --> 00:36:39,632
One of the most exciting,
708
00:36:39,656 --> 00:36:41,676
young singers in
the business today.
709
00:36:41,700 --> 00:36:43,469
Let's make her
feel right at home,
710
00:36:43,493 --> 00:36:45,495

I think
something's wrong with me.
718
00:37:40,383 --> 00:37:41,944
I haven't been feeling so good.
719
00:37:41,968 --> 00:37:43,904
Oh, what's the matter baby?
720
00:37:43,928 --> 00:37:47,158
Well,
my tummy's been feeling sick and my monthly
721
00:37:47,182 --> 00:37:49,642
hasn't come, not for a while.
722
00:37:50,685 --> 00:37:53,038
Well, how long has it been?
723
00:37:53,062 --> 00:37:55,440
Four months. Get up, come here.
724
00:38:02,572 --> 00:38:05,742
Do you feel different inside
like everything's moving faster?
725
00:38:06,534 --> 00:38:08,345
I don't know.
726
00:38:08,369 --> 00:38:11,056
Erma says when you don't get
your monthly you have a baby.
727
00:38:11,080 --> 00:38:13,851
Do you know how you get a baby?
728
00:38:13,875 --> 00:38:16,228
Who did this to you?
729
00:38:16,252 --> 00:38:18,647
A boy at school?
730
00:38:18,671 --> 00:38:21,108
Someone on the road? Who did this to you,
little Re?
731
00:38:21,132 --> 00:38:22,985
What's that?
732
00:38:23,009 --> 00:38:24,570
Little Re isn't feeling well.
733
00:38:24,594 --> 00:38:26,906
Oh yea?
734
00:38:26,930 --> 00:38:30,225
I might have a baby inside me.
735
00:38:33,853 --> 00:38:35,581
How you know?
736
00:38:35,605 --> 00:38:38,608
She hasn't had
her monthly and I feel a bump.
737
00:38:43,530 --> 00:38:46,282
Son.
738
00:38:57,585 --> 00:39:00,880
What in God's name happened?
739
00:39:01,214 --> 00:39:04,050
The road is a wild place, Momma.
740
00:39:05,134 --> 00:39:07,780
I wanted her to stay home.
741
00:39:07,804 --> 00:39:09,448
You insisted.
742
00:39:09,472 --> 00:39:12,326
She's too young to be out there.
743
00:39:12,350 --> 00:39:16,479
All these children are
living without a mother
744
00:39:16,813 --> 00:39:20,334
and the first time that I
let that precious child out of
745
00:39:20,358 --> 00:39:22,569
my sight this happens?
746
00:39:23,695 --> 00:39:26,298
You weren't watching her.
747
00:39:26,322 --> 00:39:29,409
You let her fall pray
to God knows what.
748
00:39:31,452 --> 00:39:37,000
I did keep my eye on her,
Momma, as best I could.
749
00:39:40,962 --> 00:39:47,343
The boy, the boy
who did this must be held accountable.
750
00:39:59,230 --> 00:40:05,320
We could waste time and
chase after worldly justice or
751
00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:11,242
we could simply accept that
this is a part of the mission
752
00:40:15,580 --> 00:40:18,958
that God, God has for her.

759
00:41:09,801 --> 00:41:13,763
I don't know why she
decided to sing that particular song.
760
00:41:14,138 --> 00:41:16,450
Well, she sings what she wants.
761
00:41:16,474 --> 00:41:19,644
One minute insisting on showtunes
and here she is doing a jazz number.
762
00:41:22,063 --> 00:41:24,440
I can't reason with her.
763
00:41:25,483 --> 00:41:27,318
Nor can I.
764
00:41:32,991 --> 00:41:35,803
How you feeling, baby?
765
00:41:35,827 --> 00:41:37,596
All right, I guess.
766
00:41:37,620 --> 00:41:39,807
We're going
to take you to Dr. Steward.
767
00:41:39,831 --> 00:41:43,227
Okay. Are you mad?
768
00:41:43,251 --> 00:41:45,854
No, baby.
769
00:41:45,878 --> 00:41:49,858
And this is not going
to stop you from singing
770
00:41:49,882 --> 00:41:51,819
or from going to school.
771
00:41:51,843 --> 00:41:54,822
Isn't that right, Momma?
772
00:41:54,846 --> 00:41:57,741
We're all going to pitch in,
773
00:41:57,765 --> 00:42:01,519
and this baby will
be the family's baby.
774
00:42:02,020 --> 00:42:03,539
That's right.
775
00:42:03,563 --> 00:42:08,609
This is not going to stop you
from what you were meant to do.
776
00:42:12,071 --> 00:42:15,491
Meant to do.
777
00:42:25,793 --> 00:42:28,480
That was
a wonderful performance.
778
00:42:28,504 --> 00:42:29,565
I wish I could stay.
779
00:42:29,589 --> 00:42:30,816
I think I sang really well.
780
00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:32,818
You always sing well.
781
00:42:32,842 --> 00:42:35,237
But we haven't found it yet,
have we?
782
00:42:35,261 --> 00:42:36,613
Not from lack of trying.
783
00:42:36,637 --> 00:42:38,574
So,
let's get you back into the studio
784
00:42:38,598 --> 00:42:40,200
and put our heads together.
785
00:42:40,224 --> 00:42:41,660
Hammond. MR. Ted.
786
00:42:41,684 --> 00:42:44,496
Listen, I, I wish I could linger
but I have another event.
787
00:42:44,520 --> 00:42:45,373
Congratulations.
788
00:42:45,397 --> 00:42:47,774
Glad you could make it.
789
00:42:49,692 --> 00:42:52,403
On your birthday last year,
you remember what you wished for?
790
00:42:53,529 --> 00:42:55,507
Have you seen my father?
791
00:42:55,531 --> 00:42:57,342
You said you wanted
to be on The Steve Allen Show
792
00:42:57,366 --> 00:42:59,053
and what did I say to you?
793
00:42:59,077 --> 00:43:01,513
I said I was going to make
your dreams come true.
794
00:43:01,537 --> 00:43:03,015
And now look at where we are.
795
00:43:03,039 --> 00:43:04,892
He made it all this way,
stayed for the show,
796
00:43:04,916 --> 00:43:06,977
and didn't stay for the party
which means he was either still
797
00:43:07,001 --> 00:43:09,146
mad at me or he thought
my performance was bad.
798
00:43:09,170 --> 00:43:10,314
Was it?
799
00:43:10,338 --> 00:43:12,632
No, baby, baby,
baby, baby, no, come on.
800
00:43:13,299 --> 00:43:15,009
Mr. Wexler?
801
00:43:16,677 --> 00:43:18,155
I'm a big fan, Aretha.
802
00:43:18,179 --> 00:43:19,364
Ms. Franklin.
803
00:43:19,388 --> 00:43:21,784
Excuse me, Ms. Franklin.
804
00:43:21,808 --> 00:43:24,787
You know I've
launched a few careers,
805
00:43:24,811 --> 00:43:26,455
Atlantic Records and me.
806
00:43:26,479 --> 00:43:28,624
We roll up our sleeves
and we dig deep.
807
00:43:28,648 --> 00:43:31,001
This contract with
Columbia is almost up.
808
00:43:31,025 --> 00:43:33,486
What she does after that,
that's her call.
809
00:43:33,778 --> 00:43:35,297
Columbia's had a good run.
810
00:43:35,321 --> 00:43:37,549
But music is changing,
you've got to stay ahead of it
811
00:43:37,573 --> 00:43:39,426
or you're going
to get left behind.
812
00:43:39,450 --> 00:43:41,095
Can I be honest?
813
00:43:41,119 --> 00:43:42,930
Yeah, please.
814
00:43:42,954 --> 00:43:46,707
Tonight,
I wanted to be wowed but I wasn't.
815
00:43:47,125 --> 00:43:48,560
And I don't think the
audience was either.
816
00:43:48,584 --> 00:43:49,937
Well,
now you're just plain wrong.
817
00:43:49,961 --> 00:43:51,522
Skylark is going
to be a classic.
818
00:43:51,546 --> 00:43:53,065
I'm trying everything I can.
819
00:43:53,089 --> 00:43:54,441
You know I
work with Ray Charles.
820
00:43:54,465 --> 00:43:55,776
He's a genius.
821
00:43:55,800 --> 00:43:58,946
I could do for
you what I did for Ray.
822
00:43:58,970 --> 00:44:01,657
I could help you
find your sound.
823
00:44:01,681 --> 00:44:03,826
That's what I do.
824
00:44:03,850 --> 00:44:06,954
Now, let me ask you,
what kind of music do you really
825
00:44:06,978 --> 00:44:09,373
want to make, Ms. Franklin?
826
00:44:09,397 --> 00:44:12,709
I want to make hits, Mr. Wexler.
827
00:44:12,733 --> 00:44:15,003
You'll get there
when you realize you're
828
00:44:15,027 --> 00:44:18,114
Aretha Franklin and nobody else.
829
00:44:19,782 --> 00:44:21,784
Pleasure.
830
00:44:25,538 --> 00:44:27,081
Let me freshen your drink.
831
00:44:37,633 --> 00:44:39,260
