Supernatural (Ben E. King album)
Supernatural is the eighth studio album and ninth album overall by American soul and R&B singer Ben E. King. Released in 1975, it marked King's transition to the main Atlantic Records label after time on subsidiary labels. The single "Supernatural Thing" brought him a return to chart success, reaching No. 1 on the Billboard Hot Soul Singles chart, his first time in 14 years, and peaking at No. 5 on the Billboard Hot 100.[1] The title track and other tracks on the album featured King singing in a higher key as second tenor, rather than his usual baritone.
