Etta James - January 25, 1938 - January 20, 2012. RIP...A true legend of music has passed...
This is the last Etta James reblog I’ll make. And obviously, reblogs on my little shitball of a blog aren’t a drop in...
I didn’t know she died today! RIP…A great loss for music world!
Rest in peace, Etta.
Sad to see the good ones ago, especially in such a manner. What a voice.
So sorry if you didn’t get to know who she was or hear her music.
