I Never Loved a Man (The Way I Love You)
Written by Ronnie Shannon, Aretha Franklin's first major Atlantic Records hit reached #1 on the R&B charts and #9 on the pop charts after its February 10, 1967 release. The song became the title track and lead single from her tenth studio album, defining her career after a modest tenure at Columbia Records. The B-side was "Do Right Woman, Do Right Man."
