Talk about a GREAT show
Last night I got to witness an incredible show. Even though I was working it, it was astounding. To see ETTA JAMES live is to witness a legend. She was remarkable. Her voice never faltered, and the band is so tight. To think that she is 70 and has pneumonia, closing your eyes you would think she was 35 and in perfect health. Her show is similar to that of B B King, in that she will talk and tell stories in between songs, but lets face it, she has paid her dues and is entitled to truly entertain the paying audience. I find shows of this nature more entertaining then non-stop music in that it shows the human side of the performer. Etta is also a smart business woman in that her manager is her husband and her two sons are in the band, so it is truly a family affair. I was graced with her autograph on the guitar after the show and will be posting some new pictures later in the week.
