Live at Montreux 1975-1993 [Blu-ray]



All around good+
I think Etta is at her best and has she has an excellent band. Seems to be recorded well. Good variety of song selections.

Go Eagle rock
For material that is over 20 years old this Blu-ray gives a compelling visit with the late
great Etta James the Queen of the blues.
Having seen Etta twice live this blu-ray did not disappoint either visually or phonically.
It includes her hallmark cut At Last as well as my other favorites How Strong Is a Woman,I Got the Will,Tell Mama,,Come to Mama, and more.
Eagle rock is fast becoming a trusted name for Blu-ray concerts of any vintage!For under 20 dollars this was a no brainer for me.

ETTA ROCKS MONTREUX ON BLU RAY
Eagle Rock Entertainment continues it's excellent Blu-ray series on artists who have performed at the Montreaux Jazz Festival with this superb concert featuring the legendary Etta James. As they have shown in recent releases with artists such as Santana, Simply Red, Phil Collins, and B.B. King it doesn't get any better than Eagle Rock when it comes to the ultimate concert experience. The video image is pristine making you actually feel like you're on stage with the artists. But that's nothing compared to the audio. Not only can you hear every single instrument but you may have to turn the volume down it's that loud. Not that I'm complaining. I was hoping that Eagle Rock would release at least one of Etta James concerts at Montreaux and now they have with this release: "Etta James Live at Montreaux 1993". That's a little bit misleading though. Although this Blu-ray focuses on that 1993 concert, fans of Etta James get individual performances from some of her other Montreaux appearances...
