The first eight all made the top ten on the Billboard Hot 100, including her chart-topping signature song, 'Respect.' No single included charted lower than #19 on the Hot 100. Missing is her eleventh single of this sequence, 'I Can't See Myself Leaving You' of April 1969; also missing is her 1968 version of '(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction' released as a single in the United Kingdom only.

The other three tracks appeared as b-sides, two of which charted on the Hot 100 independently of their hit sides. The single mixes do not appear here on every track.

All basic tracks were recorded at FAME Studios in Muscle Shoals, Alabama, with the studio's core session musicians. Additional overdubbing on select recordings took place at Atlantic Studios in New York City.
