I remember the first time I heard this woman sing. I was 13 and I don’t remember what song she was singing.
But I do remember when I heard that magnificent voice I had chills on the back of my neck. Radio was not so good in those days, it was 50+ years ago. But her voice soared and she was with a group called The Peaches.
Etta James and The Peaches, Fats Domino, Little Richard, Elvis Presley, The Platters helped me get through my teen age years.
She was wonderful, just wonderful. So loved to listen to Mrs. James.
God rest her soul.
