I think EIE is an underrated album. It suffered from a horrible promotion situation. I can listen to it all the way through without skipping a track, even though I'm not fond of "Come Together" [[although it is the only listenable version of the song I've ever heard) and "Long and Winding Road". I'm surprised I love "Call Me" as much as I do because I couldn't ever imagine Ross doing justice to an Aretha song because their voices are so very different, but I've actually come to love Diana's version more than Aretha's [[studio that is, Ree did a killer version on a tv show- Tom Jones I think- that made her own hit version sound like crap). I think Diana did some great work on this album, despite it not being a fan favorite.
