Just call the song exactly what it is" Aretha Franklin sings on "Rock Steady," a funky track about grooving to the music. Aretha wrote the song herself, but she got a lot of help in the studio (Criteria in Miami), where the groove came together. There were lots of good vibes, with famous folks dropping by just to get in on the action. On "Rock Steady," Donny Hathaway played organ and Dr. John added percussion. It was a dream come true," producer Arif Mardin said. This song has been used in several movies

The Original: Aretha Franklin, Rock Steady (Atlantic 7″, 1971). Billboard Hot 100; Best Selling Soul Singles. Later appeared on Young, Gifted And Black (Atlantic LP, 1972). One of the things I’ve remembered (or at least had reinforced) while listening to Aretha’s records in the wake of her passing is the idea that she helped R&B transition from a singles genre to an album genre just by sheer numbers. She would just put out an album with 10 or 11 or a dozen tracks on it, and none of them felt like they were needed to pad out the running time. Sure, she did a ton of covers, which saved a bit of time spent composing at the piano, but she’d work so hard to make her version of a song so thoroughly her own that I’ve heard this song before was never at the forefront of anybody’s mind. If you lifted the needle on an Aretha LP, it was for one reason only - to turn the record over.
