missavagardner: And as I started reaching deeper I realized that most of the blues of that day was done by men. Women just didn’t have the nerve. Jamesetta Hawkins aka Etta James (January 25, 1938 – JaSnuary 20, 2012) R.I.P to the Queen of Soul Etta, Nina, and Big Momma are always the voices I come back to, and that I aspire towards. Thank you for the music.

Etta, Nina, and Big Momma are always the voices I come back to, and that I aspire towards. Thank you for the music.
