The Blues Sound A Little Bluer Today With The Passing Of Award-Winning Singer Etta James




Etta James – Tuesday 25 January 1938 Los Angeles, California to Friday 20 January 2012 Riverside, California

At work KKJZ is our radio station of choice and on this day of her death, the station played a number of Etta James’ songs in tribute to her life. I never had the pleasure of seeing her in concert, but I have always felt deeply for her song “At Last”. The song resonates with me and gives me hope in the possibility that my love will eventually find me. Thank you Etta for all the music!
