A Woman Falling Out of Love is the 37th studio album by American singer Aretha Franklin. It was released by Franklin's own label Aretha's Records on May 3, 2011 in the United States. Sold exclusively through US retailer Walmart until June 3, it marked the singer's debut with her label following her departure from Arista Records and the release of the Christmas album This Christmas, Aretha (2008). Featuring modern standards and familiar classics as well as guest vocalists Ronald Isley, Eddie Franklin, and Karen Clark-Sheard, Franklin produced most of the material herself.
