I was so saddened by this news
I too am sad. Looks like an Etta James marathon is about to begin in this house.
what a loss..:(
HUGGGGGGGGG
Anybody familiar with this song? Uncharacteristic for EJ, tho I like her characteristic stuff too, and it blew me away when I first heard it a million years ago, and it still does...

Written by Randy Newman, who sings it in his chillingly quiet way. But I like Etta belting it out.

Funny thing, she was (I have read) quite religious. Or maybe that happened after she recorded this, which was a long time ago...
What a talent... imagine what a life!

Enjoyed your selection M, but no not familiar til now
She never sung a bad tune Myriad. Ever.
What a voice...
Of all the heinous crimes that have been that have been perpetrated upon the people of earth by the “New World Order” eviscerating Rhythm and Blues with rap music has to be the biggest slap in the face to the Gods. I want to be there when they try to explain that one. Great listen!
Without a doubt, one of the voices of the 20th century. Or maybe ever. Great song, Myriad. Thank You.
That meant to read, one of the BEST voices ...
I saw her with BB King she was an amazing woman. I never heard her sing this song before. Wow
I love her voice, amazing.
great song ~ incredible rendition.
So long Etta...
Wonderful song. I watched a great clip of her singing with Robert Cray, Chuck Berry and Keith Richards. She had a wicked sense of humour too.
Nobody's ever channeling everybody in heaven laughing at us. It's always "the word" which turns out to be an excuse to ask for money to help spread "the word." Great song. Great singer. Thanks for this remembrance.
A great way to do honor to a great musician. May she rest in peace.

What a talent. What a loss! Thanks for posting this. Looks like we're on the same wavelength. My latest post is: At Last: The Undying Realness of Etta James. Check it out!

I love her music and her life story is amazing. If you have not read it, "Rage to Survive, The Etta James Story" is worth the time.
RIP.
