Ramblin' Through The Blues - Etta James and Christine Perfect
What happens when one of the greatest voices in soul strips it all back to the blues? In 2004, Etta James released Blues to the Bone—a Grammy-winning album of raw, no-frills performances that proved the blues isn’t just history, it’s survival.
In this episode, we dive into the stories behind the songs, the family collaboration that shaped the record, and why this late-career triumph still resonates today.
Join me as we explore Etta James’ Blues to the Bone—an album that shows the blues never dies, it just gets deeper."
