Album Review
The Essential Etta James comprises 44 tracks summarizing the long and brilliant Chess tenure of "Miss Peaches," Etta James, opening with her 1960 smash "All I Could Do Was Cry," and encompassing her torchy, fully orchestrated ballads "At Last," "My Dearest Darling," and "Trust in Me," and continuing on through her 1962 gospel-rocker "Something's Got a Hold on Me," the Chicago soul standouts "I Prefer You" and "842-3089," and her 1967 Muscle Shoals-cut smash "Tell Mama." A few of the '70s sides that conclude the two-disc set seem like filler when compared to what preceded them, but most of the essentials are aboard.

A Well of emotion
by AnvilTimeFew Voices carry like Etta James, Electric Blues finest.
Respected, Loved, and Feard for her power.
Lovin' Etta more everyday
by Alliwantis U2Etta James' lovely voice takes your soul to a deep and enchanting place that soothes your emotions and slows your angst. Within her voice lies power and depth, something that makes her and this collection so unique. Songs like "Lovin' you more every day" and "a sunday kind of love" make you want to grab your loved one and dance romantically while still breathing in her humble song style. I listen to Etta because she makes me free and lets me escape the many disasters of modern artists. This collection is truley timeless and a must-have.
Queen of the Blues
by rockislandgirlJust listening the Etta on a rainy day can make it sunny. So many great songs on two CD's. Mostly her early stuff, fresh and young. One CD I enjoy.
Of course "At Last" is my number one, but also there is "All I can do is cry" Tell Mama" "Loving more every day" ....... I can't think of a song I would miss on this set. Enjoy.
