Etta James - Tell Mama [Chess 75 Series]

When soul history shifted in the late '60s, Etta James was right at the center of the storm. After a bitter split between Atlantic's Jerry Wexler and FAME Studio's Rick Hall, Hall struck back by inviting Chess Records — Atlantic's fiercest rival — to bring its biggest stars to Muscle Shoals. Between August and December of 1967, Etta James walked into FAME looking for a creative spark... and walked out with the greatest album of her career: Tell Mama.
