I bought an Etta James album (“Let’s roll”) some weeks ago in a small music store in Uppsala. I thought #EttaJames was on my list of musicians whose voice I like but don’t have any album so far. Today we listened to that album. Turns out, I did not remember her, but wow, she’s amazing! #Blues at its best, definitely need more of her

Legendary vocal powerhouse Etta James with one of her rock & roll hits “Good Rockin’ Daddy” (https://youtu.be/QpcWWEdRuBk?is=ewbSamAUxS5-aSSA)

I lied, this is the stereo version. Didn’t get a lot of stero separation though. Often, especially on old recordings like this, you get hard-panned instruments, and everything is kinda centred.
Still quite lovely tho.

Ok, last of the night before I go to my SACD collection.
#NowPlaying Etta James ‘Tell Mama’
This is the recent 180g Atlantic 75 pressing, and whoooooooo boy, it’s lovely. Her voice is so intensely compelling.
It’s a mono, but it does that depth thing that good mono recordings have. All the instruments are clear, and have space around them.
Note, I’m playing it via a stereo cart, out two speakers, so not eeking out the full potential.
