Californian Etta James decided against accepting filmmaker Martin Scorcese's
personal invitation to sing at The Blues gala in New York in early 2003. The
well-celebrated soul and blues queen makes amends here with what is one of the
most blues-centered recordings in her expansive discography, bringing her big,
no-nonsense voice and her feisty, proud woman's point of view to bear on classics,
many identified with Chicago. The likes of Howlin' Wolf's “Smokestack Lightnin',” Jimmy Reed's “Hush Hush,” and Muddy Waters's “Got My Mojo Working” may
be hackneyed choices, but she seizes each of a dozen as her own, and clearly,
as she says herself, these are the blues songs that touch her the deepest. No
argument here. --Frank-John Hadley
