About this product
Vinyl LP pressing. Etta James' approach to both singing and life was one akin to riot and rebellion that included violence, drug addiction, armed robbery and highly impulsive behaviour. She sang with unrivalled emotion and a pain that can leave the stoniest listener in emotional turmoil. The ferocity of her voice reflected her traumatic life... a neglected child, a teen drug addict, a woman constantly entering into bad relationships and an artist raging against an industry and a society that had routinely discriminated against her. Over a career spanning more than half a century Etta 'Peaches' James has become a true blues icon. Widely acknowledged as one of the most important and influential female blues and R&B singers of the post-war era, she has been cited by critics, peers, younger artists whom she influenced, industry insiders and consumer aficionados, as one of most versatile and expressive blues singers. Effortlessly bridging the divides between pure blues, rhythm and blues, rock n' roll, sophisticated pop and jazz with an intensity and passion rarely matched. From Bonnie Raitt to Beyonce, Tina Turner to Adele, Etta James stands alone in her far reaching influence. This LP shines a light on her early career, showcasing some of her greatest and earthiest recordings. From her first single as a delinquent teenager The Wallflower, through to the distinctly Motown influenced Next Door To The Blues we hear just why Etta James is the true embodiment of blues. Album Tracks 1. The Wallflower (Roll with Me Henry) 2. Good Rockin Daddy 3. Spoonful 4. All I Could Do Was Cry 5. My Dearest Darling 6. If I Can't Have You 7. At Last 8. I Just Want to Make Love to You 9. Trust in Me 10. Fool That I Am 11. Don't Cry, Baby 12. Something's Got a Hold on Me 13. Stop the Wedding 14. Next Door to the Blues

Vinyl LP pressing. Etta James was once considered one of the most overlooked blues and R&B musicians in the music history of the United States. It was not until the early 1990s, when she began receiving major industry awards from the Grammys and the Blues Foundation, that she began to receive wide recognition. James has influenced a wide variety of musicians, including Diana Ross, Janis Joplin, Bonnie Raitt, as well as British artists The Rolling Stones, Joss Stone and Adele. Her samples were used by Flo Rida and Avicii's award winning InchLevelsInch. Album Tracks 1. Dance with Me Henry 2. Do Something Crazy 3. Woman 4. My One and Only 5. I Hope You're Satisfied 6.
