Etta James - Saga All Stars: Good Rockin' Daddy / Selected Singles 1954-1956 (2009)

Saga All Stars lets you rediscover, in the best possible conditions, the immense figures who were, among others, the queen of soul Aretha Franklin, the youthful but already groove-dynamic James Brown, rock’n’roll pioneers Elvis Presley and Gene Vincent, the fantastic crooner Nat King Cole, the irresistible Marilyn Monroe and the spellbinding Nina Simone.

Few female R&B stars enjoyed the kind of consistent acclaim Etta James received throughout a career that spanned six decades; the celebrated producer Jerry Wexler once called her "the greatest of all modern blues singers," and she recorded a number of enduring hits, including "At Last," "Tell Mama," "I'd Rather Go Blind," and "All I Could Do Was Cry." At the same time, despite possessing one of the most powerful voices in music, James only belatedly gained the attention of the mainstream audience, appearing rarely on the pop charts despite scoring 30 R&B hits, and she lived a rough-and-tumble life that could have inspired a dozen soap operas, battling drug addiction and bad relationships while outrunning a variety of health and legal problems.
