Abracadabra

Erma Franklin, Aretha's older sister, had a song by this name. I dont know if it charted at all or not, but it's worth a listen. Could it be a cover of the DeFranco family version? I'm not familiar with theirs.

When we have a page dedicated to a song title it lists all the chart entries we have for that title. So we don't have an entry for Erma Franklin's 1963 song "Abracadabra".
