At Last!
by Etta James
The 615th greatest album of all time
At Last! is Etta James's 1960 debut album that blends blues, R and B, and soul into a set of heartfelt ballads and more driving rhythm numbers. The record highlights her powerful, expressive voice across torch songs and Southern Soul-tinged performances, pairing intimate vocal delivery with orchestral and band arrangements. It includes the now closely associated rendition of the title track, and is often cited as a defining release in her early career.
