“I Say A Little Prayer” (Aretha) #10 10/5/1968

Burt Bacharach and Hal David racked up a Top 10 twice for the same song within 10 months. Dionne Warwick scored big with her version in December of 1967; Aretha Franklin did the same here with the flip of “The House That Jack Built,” albeit hers was just a tad slower. Aretha and the Sweet Inspirations were singing this one day for fun in the studio, then decided to record it for real. Good move.
