The Original “Sparkle”

Posted on August 12, 2012 at 8:00 am

The remake of “Sparkle” with Jordin Sparks, Derek Luke, and Whitney Houston opens this week, so it is a good time to revisit the original version with Irene Cara and Lonette McKee and especially the soundtrack: Sparkle: Music From The Warner Bros. Motion Picture, featuring Aretha Franklin singing songs by Curtis Mayfield.
