I wasn't going to post a thread after hearing of the sad passing of Jonny Otis yesterday, despite the avatar change, but it turns out that Etta James - who co-incidentally was discovered by him - has now also passed.
A sad week for proper R & B and soul music - which I love - as opposed to the crap that passes for it these days.
