  3. "Spoonful" is a #blues song written by #WillieDixon and first recorded in 1960 by #HowlinWolf. Called "a stark and haunting work", it is one of Dixon's best known and most interpreted songs. #EttaJames and #HarveyFuqua had a pop and R&B record chart hit with their duet cover of "Spoonful" in 1961 and it was popularized in the late 1960s by the British rock group #Cream.

  4. Deep Listening Day #96 — Etta James: The Chess Box (2000). Robert Christgau dubbing Etta, Soul Sister No. 2 nails it. I started listening during college and she has been my second favorite female singer of the post-Rock & Roll era ever since.

    Multiple Grammy-winner #EttaJames was a master of many musical genres, despite being abused and suffering from a heroine addiction. She is known as one of the greatest voices of the 20th century.

  14. Prvním ze série šesti alb, které pro značku Private Music natočila zpěvačka Etta James v letech 1997 – 2003, byl úspěšný titul Love’s Been Rough On Me (1997). Dokráčel na 6. místo mezi bluesovými alby žebříčku Billboardu.

  15. I po letech si album Tell Mama (1968) udrželo statut jedné z nejlepších nahrávek v bohaté a úspěšné pěvecké kariéře losangelské rodačky Etty James. Dodnes patří mezi těžko překonatelné soulové klasiky nejenom let šedesátých.

  16. LP deska At Last! (1960) byla pro Ettu James návratem na výsluní po pěti těžkých letech a přežívání v zapomnění, ve kterém se ocitla po úspěšných hitech Roll With, Me Henry či Good Rocking Daddy.

  17. "Nebyla jsem žádná Suzy Creamcheese," vzpomínala zpěvačka Etta James ve své autobiografii a dodala. "Chtěla jsem z malé Jamesetty, která chodí do kostela, udělat drsnou mrchu Ettu James. Ve skutečnosti jsem ale nevěděla, kdo vlastně jsem."
