- Aretha Franklin was recording her "Jump To It" album with Luther Vandross producing when I spent some time with her in the studio for a Today Show "On the Record" segment. She played the piano & sang some gospel tunes for me, told me about the first song she learned to play, and then we filmed her laying down the vocal for "This is for Real". Either I screwed up the title in the story or the song had a different working title at the time. We all looked a lot younger in '81 or '82 when this was recorded including Chris Wallace who was hosting the Today Show then.
No one peeped Luther Vandross in the studio? Rest in power to both of them 😭😭
I peeped him.....he produced the Jump to It album and Get it Right!!!
LUTHER ORIGINALLY WROTE, PRODUCED AND RECORDED YHE SONG IN 1977 WIYH HIS GROUP LITHER...HIS VERSION IS A MASTERPIECE
I saw my Luther. The greatest male vocalist and lyric writer.
Her voice is so amazing. I wish they would have shown her singing the whole song in the studio.
So True!!
I know right!!
Who still here for this song in 2019? 🙋🏽♂️
I always thought this should’ve been her Luther’s duet. She killed this whole album!!! 💯🙌🏾🔥
WOW 2 OF MY FAVS...ARETHA... & LUTHER...I REALLY MISS THEM...R.I.P. GOD BLESS YALL
I mean she literally breathes life into a lyric and a melody! And my favorite male vocalist just happened to produce this album and the next one I believe! She had to win a grammy with all that genius in one room!
And that's what some people don't understand about Aretha being called the Queen of Soul. They think it's about the loudness or height of an artist's instrument but it's not. It's the connection to heart and spirit. Aretha has always been connected to the divine. She is even more so now. I miss her being here.
Luther also recorded this many years ago (1977 I believe) when he had a group called LUTHER

Awesome thanks for sharing
Luther wrote that song. He actually recorded once when he had group called LUTHER.
Wow, thank you, I went straight to RUclips 💖 Luther sung with so much passion 😭 Truth, a real real love story ❤️
When she was singing "this is for real" at the end, sounded much better then the actual song that was released.
In the the recorded version of '"This Is for Real," check out her run at the end of her intro. She hits every note, then repeats the run three times in seconds. Stunning agility.
GOSH I MISS HER
My favorite video here!
She has the best voice I've heard....many are great.....but she's in class by herself.....even after her transition.💜😘 He mentioned Mick Jagger, Frank Sinatra etc.....they're great in their lane.....Aretha's on the Audubon....they can't keep up!!😂
exactly my thought!
I swear I miss her like I knew her personally!
this was a good feture
She's the greatest of all time
Much better than........nvm
He was wrong... The guy talking said "It's For Real"... The title of the RUclips video is correct.
Chris Wallace jump scare!

As the recording session reveals, Aretha's voice dropped rather dramatically in the late '70s and early '80s. The years of smoking several packs a day finally took its toll. It's also what likely led to her cancer diagnosis in 2010.
Plus Twelvetrees, Yes this was 1982 and you can hear how much lower she can go though her voice still sounds gorgeous. She stopped smoking around 20 or so years ago though it is true that smoking can increase the chance of developing pancreatic cancer. So sad that she`s gone.
