LP version. Etta James live at the Chicago Blues Festival, Grant Park on June 7th, 1985. Etta James needs no introduction to lovers of soul, blues, and R&B.

Originally broadcast on WXRT-FM, this superb set captures her on terrific form, performing a selection of her best-loved songs in front of a delighted crowd. The entire original broadcast is presented here, professionally re-mastered, together with background liner notes and rare archival photos.
