It is part of an ABC program called TWO SINGERS: TWO PROFILES or something like that. One singer profiled was Gloria Loring. Aretha was the other.
Aretha's profile was called ARETHA FRANKLIN: SOUL SINGER. In addition to the clip above, footage was shown of her 1968 Cobo Hall concert in Detroit where Dr. King surprised her on stage, in church singing with her brother Cecil, as well as footage of her at the piano with then-husband Ted White.
