Question: Does anyone know the Instrument Performance Credit List on Aretha's original studio version of "Call Me"!?
Answers:
Besides Aretha on piano, the musicians included members of the Muscle Shoals rhythm section:
Roger Hawkins - Drums
David Hood - Bass
Jimmy Johnson - Guitar
Barry Beckett - Keyboards
Eddie Hinton - Guitar
This tender ballad written by Aretha Franklin was created after she saw a young couple in deep conversation on New York's Park Avenue!. As they went their separate ways, each said to the other, "I love you!.!.!.call me!." Their exchange became one of the song's hooks!.
The recording session for the song which was released on the studio album "This Girl's in Love with You" (Rhino Entertainment Label) was done at Miami's Criteria Studios in the fall of 1969 with Jerry Wexler, engineer Tom Dowd, and strings arranger Arif Mardin sharing production credit!. The album was released January 15, 1970!.
Some of the melancholy tone of "Call Me" can be attributed to the way Aretha was feeling after she'd just broken up with her husband/manager Ted White!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
