Jump to It

Jump to It is the twenty-eighth studio album by American singer Aretha Franklin, produced by Luther Vandross and released on July 26, 1982, by Arista Records.

Jump to It gave Franklin her tenth number-one R&B album – at the time it was the all-time record.

It was hailed as a comeback album, given that it provided Franklin with her first Gold-certified disc and Top 40 Pop song since Sparkle in 1976.

Franklin was presented her framed Gold record in Detroit by her long-time friends the Four Tops.

Armond White of Spin complained about "Luther Vandross's piss-elegant Jump to It, which, despite the lively title track, mistakenly bent Aretha into Dionne Warwick postures amid the iciness of the Chic background singers.
