Blues
Etta James can moan, groan, and holler the Blues, sing sweet Soul music, croon smooth Jazz, and belt out R&B in short Etta can do it all! She extracts the deepest passion of Blues singing and re-injects it into any song of her choice, originating from most any musical genre. A legend in her own time, she has influenced Tina Turner, Janis Joplin, Gladys Knight and countless other successful female soloists. James pioneering 1950 s hits like Roll With Me Henry (The Wallflower) also substantiate her place in the early history of Rock and Roll alongside such icons as Little Richard, Chuck Berry and Ray Charles.
Like many great Blues performers, Etta James is best experienced live! In the early 1980 s Etta James played mostly smaller clubs, and it was during one of these appearances in New York, in 1980, that this exciting live album featuring her incendiary vocal performances of Blues and Soul classics was recorded.

I have been meaning to write something about Etta James for a very long time. I am a big fan of her music. I don't know what to make of the hub bub going on between her and Beyoncé Knowles.
I do hope they get it all worked out. But just so people understand what a talent that Ms. James is, consider just a few of her awards;
Etta James is the winner of four Grammys and seventeen Blues Music Awards. She was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1993, the Blues Hall of Fame in 2001, and the Grammy Hall of Fame both in 1999 and 2008.
