Product Description
From Amazon.com
The R&B queen's classic collection is augmented this time around by a long-overdue digital remastering, plus a few bonus tracks, presumably for those who found the original album a little on the brief side. In addition to James's well-known hits, including "I Just Want to Make Love to You" and "Stormy Weather," there are four additional songs: "My Heart Cries," "Spoonful," "It's a Crying Shame," and "If I Can't Have You." Although one might cynically suggest that these were added to give Etta fans something to purchase besides The Essential Etta James, it's definitely true that these tracks are worth hearing. --Genevieve Williams
Product Description
This is Etta James's first full-length album, recorded for Chess Records' Argo subsidiary in 1960. It taps all aspects of her then-blossoming talent. There's the crooning rock ballad "My Dearest Darling" and the elegantly symphonic "Sunday Kind of Love." Her classic, brokenhearted "All I Could Do Was Cry" follows the sweet title track and the bawdy blues stomper "I Just Want to Make Love to You." And there's a version of Harold Arlen's "Stormy Weather," which Lena Horne made famous. James's fine way with such a wide embrace of material wouldn't again be this well displayed on a single album until she was united with producer Jerry Wexler for 1977's Deep in the Night. --Ted Drozdowski

who wouldn't love this cd?,

This review is from: At Last - The Best Of (Audio CD)
The great Etta James had the voice of an "earthy angel"... nothing short of powerful! When you sit back and listen to her music, well, it doesn't take long when you are immersed into it. Everyone of the songs on this cd offers messages or memories that can be brought into focus simply by taking the moment to listen. Etta James will definitely be missed and remembered for her very lovely voice.

There is only one Etta!,
By W.A. Annren "DVD Nut" (Vancouver BC Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: At Last - The Best Of (Audio CD)
Etta had the ability to take a song and make it hers only. We hear the TV personalities talk about wanting to hear the rasp, to hear the growl and stay within the song; in other words, own it. They're all talking Etta James style, 'cause the Lady can sure bring it.

I love this DVD and have always loved Etta James' song At Last. Now I can listen to her music whenever I want to. This is an excellent album to add to your collections.
