James was nothing if not versatile, as capable of turning her hand to pop as to the blues. On Damn Your Eyes, she takes her country sidefor a spin. Written by Barbara Wyrick and Steve Bogard and included on the album Seven Year Itch (a title that refers to her lengthy period away from the recording studio), it features a great piece of guitar work ...
I Just Want to Make Love to You was written by Willie Dixon and first recorded by Muddy Waters, who landed a No. 4 hit with it in 1954. Six years later, James took it for a walk on her debut album, At Last. The song had the misfortune of being released as the B side to the song’s titular track, so understandably got overlooked. Fortunately, it got ...
Let’s Burn Down the Cornfield was written and first performed by the legendary Randy Newman, but as The Guardian notes, in James’ capable hands, it’s transformed into an epic portrait of sexual conspiracy. Set against a restrained production and Lowell George’s beautiful slide guitar, James’ smokey vocals soar. A definite highlight of the album Com...

Many of the covers have their merits, but few come close to the glorious beauty of James’ original.

The song was composed in 1946 by Barbara Belle, Anita Leonard, Stan Rhodes, and Louis Prima. It quickly established itself as a jazz-pop standard, recorded by everyone from Claude Thornhill and his Orchestra to The Del...
Whether you know The Wallflower as The Wallflower, Roll with Me, Henry, Dance with Me, Henry, or simply as one of the best songs James ever made, you’re almost guaranteed to know it. A classic piece of jukebox swing, the song was written by Johnny Otis, Hank Ballard, and James as one of the many answers to the song Work with Me, Annie. With lyrics ...
In the ’60s, James’ career took a turn for the worse as she sank further into heroin addiction. But you can’t keep a good woman down, and in 1968, she returned with a spring in her step and the fabulously infectious Tell Mama. If you’re in a funk, turn the volume up on this fierce piece of horn-driven soul and kiss goodbye to the blues. Released as...
When Etta James died at the age of 73, she left behind a body of work that touched on every emotional state a person could ever experience. If you’re happy, blue, in love, out of love, feeling lucky or on a losing streak, there’s an Etta James song to match. As eonline.com notes, All I Could Do Was Cry, a song in which Etta sits by and watches as h...
At Last isn’t just one of Etta James’ finest songs, it’s one of the most iconic compositions of all time. It might have accompanied a thousand cringeworthy rom-coms, but there’s nothing cheesy about Etta’s exuberant, triumphant performance. No matter how many times you hear it piped through waiting rooms, hair salons, or movie theaters, this is one...
