| Audio CD Description Californian Etta James decided against accepting filmmaker Martin Scorcese's personal invitation to sing at The Blues gala in New York in early 2003. The well-celebrated soul and blues queen makes amends here with what is one of the most blues-centered recordings in her expansive discography, bringing her big, no-nonsense voice and her feisty, proud woman's point of view to bear on classics, many identified with Chicago. The likes of Howlin' Wolf's "Smokestack Lightnin'," Jimmy Reed's "Hush Hush," and Muddy Waters's "Got My Mojo Working" may be hackneyed choices, but she seizes each of a dozen as her own, and clearly, as she says herself, these are the blues songs that touch her the deepest. No argument here. |

Still Queen of the Blues I attended a live performance of Etta James in Washington, D.C. in the early 1960's. I've enjoyed her music since.I was delighted when Amazon placed her latest CD, Blues to the Bone, on the market. Etta is right on, ranging from a plaintive "got my mojo working but it don't work on you," to a sultry "Lil' Red Rooster" and "Crawlin King Snake," and closing with a jocular "Honey Don't Tear My clothes." The voice is deeper but the range of expression is still there.
This lady is just simply one of the best! This is one of Etta James' best recordings. She does more for the blues than just sing them, she makes the listener feel them. Girlfriend still has "it" and it's such a pleasure to hear her wonderful voice!
blues to the bone This is one of Etta's best. I love it. I have just about worn it out. One of my favorites. |
