Singer Etta James, 73, RIP

n this April 29, 2006 photo, Etta James performs during the 2006 New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival in New Orleans. James, the feisty rhythm and blues singer whose raw, passionate vocals anchored many hits and made the yearning ballad “At Last” an enduring anthem for weddings, commercials and even President Barack Obama, died today. She was 73. James had been suffering from dementia and kidney problems, and was battling leukemia. In December, her physician announced that her leukemia was terminal. CNN story here.

Question: Any thoughts re: the passing of singing legend Etta James? And/or: When did you last hear “At Last” sung at a wedding?
