Aretha's Introduction (Live at New Temple Missionary Baptist Church, Los Angeles, January 13, 1972)
And now the young lady that
We have all been waiting to hear
She is known by many names
And deservedly so
She's earned every title
But it's my pleasure tonight to just say my sister
Miss Aretha Franklin, give her big hand
Now, as you know this is a recording session and
If things should happen and we have to take it over
You understand how that is
So if you said Amen on it first
And we have to take it over
When we get back to that spot you say Amen again, yeah?
And if we have to take it over again you say Amen again
Alright, uh, she could have been easy and have gone to the studio and done this album
But she wanted to do something live
And the only reason we want to do it live is to get the audience participation
So now those of you here got to sound like about two thousand
Can you sound like two thousand? (Make me hear, come on, yeah)
Our irst selection, tonight is going to be a little number
That was done by brother Marvin Gaye, and it's called "Wholy, holy"
Ladies and gentlemen Aretha Franklin, Southern California choir
Wholy, holy
We have all been waiting to hear
She is known by many names
And deservedly so
She's earned every title
But it's my pleasure tonight to just say my sister
Miss Aretha Franklin, give her big hand
Now, as you know this is a recording session and
If things should happen and we have to take it over
You understand how that is
So if you said Amen on it first
And we have to take it over
When we get back to that spot you say Amen again, yeah?
And if we have to take it over again you say Amen again
Alright, uh, she could have been easy and have gone to the studio and done this album
But she wanted to do something live
And the only reason we want to do it live is to get the audience participation
So now those of you here got to sound like about two thousand
Can you sound like two thousand? (Make me hear, come on, yeah)
Our irst selection, tonight is going to be a little number

Ladies and gentlemen Aretha Franklin, Southern California choir
Wholy, holy
