“Call Me” (Aretha Franklin) #13 4/4/1970

Not to be confused with songs having the same title from Chris Montez in the mid 60’s or Blondie in the early 80’s, this was written and done by Aretha Franklin. She had just split from her first husband, which explains a lot about this #1 soul entry. The flip side was Aretha’s version of “Son Of A Preacher Man,” originally written for Lady Soul and which she recorded prior to Dusty Springfield’s hit.
