This is Avery Sunshine. Actually, this is a repost from a August 5, 2010 post that I made about her. Still love to come back and hear this. Hope you do to. This is not the actual studio version of the song that I recently heard while on the radio. This is a practice tape she made using a camcorder. The video shows how inspired and soulful this artist is. She has "it".

The World Is Praying For Etta James

The most under rated soul singer in the world, Etta James, is very ill with a combination of leukemia, Hepatitis C and other condition. Doctors have labeled her condition as terminal.

Fans from around the world are saying their prayers in hopes of a miracle that can turn her health around.

Every time I hear her voice, it kills me. Songs like "I'd Rather Go Blind" is so superb that there are few words or descriptions that can do her work justice. Her brand of soul is pure perfection and raw emotion. GC
