Aretha Franklin - Ain't No Way

Ain't No Way

Carolyn Franklin wrote this soul ballad for her elder sister Aretha Franklin, who recorded it for the 1968 album Lady Soul. The song served as the B-side to Aretha's hit "(Sweet Sweet Baby) Since You've Been Gone" that same year. Carolyn's composition showcased the gospel-influenced vocal style that defined Aretha's work in this period.
