Etta James dead

Fantastic voice.

indeed, sad to hear she’d died;

Had a hard life too. Committed at 36. Major drug addict. Husband took the rap when they got busted for heroin posession and did 10 years 😯

What a voice. Really reminds me of Billie Holiday in the way it’s so full of feeling and pain, but really gracefully.

are they storing the body down in the basement?

(yes, it was a poor taste excuse to link up the track. and yes, i deliberately went for the theo parrish edit)
