Omschrijving

Etta James (born Jamesetta Hawkins; January 25, 1938 – January 20, 2012) was an American singer who 
spanned a variety of music genres including blues, R&B, soul, rock and roll, jazz and gospel. Starting her 
career in 1954, she gained fame with hits such as "The Wallflower", "At Last", "Tell Mama", "Something's 
Got a Hold on Me", and "I'd Rather Go Blind" for which she wrote the lyrics. She faced a number of 
personal problems, including drug addiction, before making a musical resurgence in the late 1980s with 
the album Seven Year Itch.

James is regarded as having bridged the gap between rhythm and blues and rock and roll, and was the 
winner of six Grammys and 17 Blues Music Awards. She was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame 
in 1993, the Blues Hall of Fame in 2001, and the Grammy Hall of Fame in both 1999 and 2008. Rolling 
Stone ranked James number 22 on their list of the 100 Greatest Singers of All Time and number 62 on the 
list of the 100 Greatest Artists.
