Duke Ellington spoke of certain things being "beyond category"--such a description suits singer Etta James. Since the 1950s, James has helped to set trends and adapted to them, applying her deep, dignified voice to jazz, blues, Southern soul, and pop balladry. BLUES TO THE BONE is James's tribute to the blues, and it takes on well-worn genre standards and gives them a veritable new lease on life. James alternates between acoustic and electric renditions--"Lil' Red Rooster" becomes a country-tinged lamentation, and "Smokestack Lightnin'" gets a rare bare-bones treatment, just voice and acoustic guitar. "Got My Mojo Working" is a chugging, loping hunk of bravado, and "The Sky Is Crying" sounds like a storm about to break, James' voice the virtual definition of "soulful." Throughout, James sings the blues as one who has lived them, and her accompanists are a lean, mean, well-oiled machine, playing nary an excess note.

Personnel: Etta James (vocals); Brian Ray (guitar, slide guitar); Josh Sklair, Bobby Murray (guitar); John "Juke" Logan (harmonica); Mike Finnegan (piano); Sametto James (bass guitar); Donto Metto James (drums).

Liner Note Author: Lithoyfayne Pridgon.

Mojo (Publisher) (p.110) - 3 stars out of 5 - "[A]s this new album cogently illustrates, the LA-born chanteuse continues to record with an energetic vigour..."

What a voice! Etta’s first album of all blues tracks in a long time, perhaps ever. Even though the songs can be classified as blues standards, she’s made them sound fresh and new. Almost like they were written especially for her. It’s a small intimate band backing her. John “Juke” Logan on harp and Bobby Murray on guitar are the main soloists. But it’s the rhythm section that makes this sound so good. Etta’s sons Donto (Drums) and Sametto (Bass) provide a solid foundation. They’re not there because Mum’s the boss or nepotism. They’re there because they’re good. Donto provides the best drumming heard on a blues album for a long time.

5 stars THIS CD IS OFF THE CHAIN
As usual, Etta James has put out another great CD. I especially love the second cut on the CD telling all these people to stop "mess" talking cuz if they start her to talking she's gonna tell everything she knows. I have been fortunate enough to have seen her peform over 10 times in the last three years. I recommend this CD to the real down home blues lovers. Thank you Etta for another fabulous CD.
