Few female R&B stars enjoyed the kind of consistent acclaim Etta James received
throughout a career that spanned six decades; the celebrated producer
Jerry Wexler once called her "the greatest of all modern blues singers,"
and she recorded a number of enduring hits, including "At Last," "Tell Mama,"
"I'd Rather Go Blind," and "All I Could Do Was Cry."
At the same time, despite possessing one of the most powerful voices in music,
James only belatedly gained the attention of the mainstream audience,
appearing rarely on the pop charts despite scoring 30 R&B hits,
and she lived a rough-and-tumble life that could have inspired a dozen
soap operas, battling drug addiction and bad relationships
while outrunning a variety of health and legal problems

Leonard Chess dispatched Etta James to Muscle Shoals in 1967,and the move paid off with one of her best and most soul-searing Cadet albums.
Produced by Rick Hall, the resultant album boasted a relentlessly driving title cut,
the moving soul ballad "I'd Rather Go Blind," and sizzling covers of
Otis Redding's "Security" and Jimmy Hughes' "Don't Lose Your Good Thing,"
and a pair of fine Don Covay copyrights. The skin-tight session aces
at Fame Studios really did themselves proud behind Miss Peaches...(AllMusic)
