Yeah!!! (or Aretha Franklin in Person With Her Quartet) is the seventh studio album by American singer Aretha Franklin. Released on May 17, 1965, by Columbia Records. Contrary to the overdubbed sounds of audience murmurs, the album was not a live album, but instead was recorded live at New York's Columbia Studios and produced by Clyde Otis. This would be Franklin's last collection of jazz recordings until the release of 1969's Soul '69, released during her landmark tenure at Atlantic Records. An expanded version of the album that also contains the original session tracks without audience overdubs has been released on CD in the Columbia Box Set Take a Look: Aretha Franklin Complete On Columbia.
