On the back of having just binge watched Godfather Of Harlem (prequel to American Gangster) I decided to watch the 1992 Malcolm X movie starring Denzel Washington (as Malcolm features extensively in GOH). The full 8:22 Aretha Franklin's version of Someday We'll All Be Free plays over the closing credits. A few weeks ago I posted several versions of Someday We'll All Be Free but omitted the version by Aretha Franklin which is only available on the soundtrack or as a promo CD, cassette or 12" on Qwest. It's not available on YouTube so I tried to upload it but it was blocked due to copyright but the full version has been posted on Soundcloud (link below).
IMBD rates Godfather Of Harlem 8.0 and Malcolm X 7.7 - NOTE Malcolm X is 3 hrs 22 mins long!
Whilst trying to find Aretha Franklin's version here's a few more I found:
