Etta James - I'm so glad / I prefer you - Cadet
You know there's always something to come along in our hobby that makes you scratch yer head and think bloody hell I thought I'd got all hers/his releases. A long time pal in the USA sends a half dozen of this never played dancer (I think) to me, so me checks me Etta James section and there it isn't. So on it goes, immediately "I'm so glad" is one of my favourite Etta 45's - pounding drums, brass the breaks and the powerhouse voice that Etta was blessed with how can folk listen to the standard top few oldies again and again with reasonably easy tunes like this to play? Obviously there are other versions of this Radiants etc.. but this is certainly standout for my unprofessional opinion - rather nice flip version too. Probably worth £50 a few quid either way but yes pick it up!
