Etta James - I Just Wanna Make Love To You

In light of recent events I felt the need to pay tribute to the late Miss Peaches. The one word that always shows up attached to her name is ‘legendary’ and truly that voice of hers is stuff of lore. Her voice transcended genres from blues to jazz to pop and rock. 

She is most well known for At Last, a song that we’ve all heard numerous times in movies and on the radio. That is why I wanted to post one of the songs you don’t get to hear all the time. I Just Wanna Make Love to You showcases the attitude she possessed that made her music so entertaining. The reason I love this song is because her voice can match the harsh sound of the trumpet and then turn silky smooth in a split second.

The world lost a legend today; you will be missed.
