The world of music lost a great one when we lost Etta James, who passed away from a myriad of ailments. James' brought the world smoe of the smoothest and most sultry R&B music ever and her blueprint is all over many modern Rock and Roll divas. Like many of her era, her music was forgotten, but in the last twenty years, her music has been "rediscovered" of sorts, and her place in Rock history is secure. The legend was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1993, and she will be missed.
