Etta James ignites a blazing fire of pure heart and soul on her 1968 album "Tell Mama". For her seventh studio album and second project for the Cadet imprint, James agreed to record with Rick Hall at the famed FAME Studios in Muscle Shoals, Alabama. The distraction-free environment coupled with the studio's improved technology resulted in one of the best albums of the 1960s. The clarity of the 12 tracks on this album is remarkable and shows the emotion and passion she evokes with her unforgettable voice. Tracks like "Tell Mama", "Just A Little Bit" and one of the most successful tracks of her career, a cover version of "I'd Rather Go Blind", paint an impressive portrait of the legendary Etta James.
