Students from the Singers Showcase concert: Aretha, Queen of Soul, perform a rendition of Franklin’s epic, self-authored blues, “Dr. Feelgood (Love Is A Serious Business).” This arrangement was written by Utar Artun, and features Aida Frantzen on lead vocals and Franklin’s longtime bass player - the legendary Chuck Rainey. The sold-out concert was produced by Maureen McMullan as part of the Signature Series at Berklee.
