Is Etta James still alive

Answer 1

Is the blues singer Etta James still alive?

Yes, she is alive (September 2011)

James was born Jamesetta Hawkins in Los Angeles on Jan. 25, 1938, to her 14-year-old mother. Her mother reportedly claimed her father was a white man named Rudolph Wanderone, better known as "Minnesota Fats." There doesn't seem to be any documentary evidence to support that contention.

In her teens, she sang with a rhythm and blues trio and caught the ear of bandleader Johnny Otis. She toured with him through the late 1950s before catching her biggest break by signing with the Chess Records out of Chicago in 1960. - previous edit by User:Aaronisbeast
