At Last! album Product Description

Originally released on Argo (4003). Includes liner notes by Andy McKaie. Digitally remastered by Erick Labson (MCA Music Media Studios, North Hollywood, California). When Etta James signed with Chess Records in 1960, the label decided to pair her raw, bluesy singing with a full backing band and lush orchestrations. AT LAST!, her Chess debut, shows the formula working to fine effect, as it highlights the singer's facility with different approaches including torchy balladry, jazz crooning, growling blues, and R&B shouting. She sounds equally at home on Willie Dixon stompers ("I Just Want To Make Love To You"), standards ("Stormy Weather"), and down-tempo soul workouts (the beautiful title track). James performs several duets with Moonglows vocalist (and then-boyfriend) Harvey Fuqua, including Dixon's "Spoonful," the duo's self-penned "My Heart Cries," and the chart-hit "If I Can't Have You." The emotionally wrenching "All I Could Do Is Cry" (the lyrics have the singer watching her beloved marry another), and soothing, romantic "Trust in Me" were hits on both the pop and R&B charts, assuring the singer's name recognition and paving the way for her future successes. ...See Full Description

Etta always discovered!
I have always loved the voice and choice of songs she has done. I was introduced to her beautiful voice in the early 60's by a girlfriend. In 2004, Hutchinson, Kansas while riding to a Little League World Series Regional Tournament, a father of one of the players inserted a CD in his auto player. He made the statement........I bet you guys have never heard of this lady before. It was Etta!! He found the CD left in his motel room. He had never ever heard of her or heard her music. I replied immediately..thats Etta James. He was shocked and wanted to know how I knew that. He is a young 30ish white male and was hooked on this new found CD and outstanding music. Etta was discovered again 40 years later by accident that will no doubt be repeated by her new listeners who buy or find her music. This is truely super wonderful music sung by an Angel!

at last the best
As a blues radio jocky broadcasting in India i'm constantly picking up classic blues c.d.'s to put on air. Etta Jame's At Last is definately one of the best blues albums of the era.It's not difficult to figure out why Johnnie Otis auditioned her and instantly signed her on. If you're getting into the blues this albums a great way to start.
