"Through the Storm" is the thirty-fifth studio album by American singer Aretha Franklin, released on Arista Records in the spring of 1989. Despite the #16 Billboard Hot 100 hit title track (a duet with Elton John), the album was not a commercial success; it reached #55 on the Billboard 200. The follow-up single, "It Isn't, It Wasn't, It Ain't Never Gonna Be", a duet with Whitney Houston, failed to make the top 40 of the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at #41. Other guest artists included James Brown, The Four Tops and Kenny G.
~Wikipedia
Having scored in the recent past with producer Narada Michael Walden and some star duets, Franklin and Arista turned out another album with the same approach but less successful results. The title duet with Elton John went Top 20, but its followup, "It Isn't, It Wasn't, It Ain't Never Gonna Be" was an embarrassing failure for both Franklin and the previously pop-perfect Whitney Houston. The rest was even less distinguished, including a song with The Four Tops and Kenny G and a remake of the old hit "Think."
