"This is the best album Etta James has ever recorded. I should know....I own all of hers.....and Cleanhead is at his best. I'd Rather Be A Blind Girl is so raw and uncut and so Etta. I never get tired of listening to this entire CD. I recommend it highly."

...they done did somethin real nice here...

"the blues is beatiful...etta and eddie got that smokey, silky, low-lush soul flowin with this...
i've been lissenin to vol. one forever!!! and i could never find this one, but i lucked up into it one day a couple months ago and found it in the basement of some back-alley, burnt-down record shop and ever since then, i keep it with me wherever i go...
this is "instant blues" - jus add bourbon and heartache and you got yourself an event!"

How can you go wrong?

"with two blues powerhouses like Etta James and Cleanhead Vinson, there's no way you won't like this CD. This was recorded live in 1986 in blues club in L.A. featuring Red Holloway, Shuggie Otis, and Jack McDuff, and you feel like you're right there for the performance. Ettas James sounds great, and I am not really too impressed with a lot of her later stuff after the 60's and early 70's."
