So, Etta James died.

    I've come to learn that most people on this board consider Nine Inch Nails, Godsmack, etc, quality music. So it comes with the territory I suppose. shrug

    I don't listen to any of those groups either.

    A lesson you could take from this is we all should be open to things new or old we haven't experienced.

    If Brandon and some of you others tried downloading some Etta James Muddy Waters or BB King you might find a whole new type of music you could enjoy. I'm closing on 60 and I still have progressive rock stations on my car stereo. Age doesn't always determine tastes in music.

    I listen to all genres of music new and old. Just never heard of this woman.

    Y'all are sensitive. I apologize to Ms. James' friends and family who were offended. Thought it would be safe here.

    I didn't down vote you either. I just asked who the woman was.

    I think the average age of then posters on this board is about 23.

    Both my kids are older than that.

    I'm 27 and have listened to all genres of music that my mom and dad listened to during my childhood. This woman was in neither of their playlists. My mom is 54 and my dad is 58.

    Etta James is what you would call a singer's singer. Most of her fans are hardcore R&B listeners but she is well known for the classic "At Last" which is a transcendent song thats even been used in commercials and movies for 5 decades.

    Go to iTunes and look it up. If you hear it you'll recognize it.

    Looks like another perfect day.

  • I can't believe people haven't heard of Etta James. You say you don't listen to R&B, but I'm sure you've heard of Aretha Franklin and Gladys Knight. She's a legend in the music industry.
