Many great singers passed through the hands of late great soul/R&B producer Jerry Wexler, from Aretha Franklin to Dusty Springfield, but Etta James was a singer he willingly waited 20 long years to work with. “Etta is a church in herself,” he said in his autobiography, adding: “Her voice is a mighty influence, her musical personality able to express an extraordinary range of moods.” He further described her as “A woman used but not spent, abused but never defeated, vulnerable but though sheer strength of will, victorious.” Her legend lives on in her music.
