I've seen on a few forums & twitter that Etta James has passed away, but nothing on regular newsfeeds yet.

Anyone confirm ?

It's all over some music forums and was on twitter but I found this link, so hopefully not true. http://bluesland.net/

Hope it's not true but it wouldn't be a huge surprise as I know she hasn't been at all well for a while now. Anyway it gives me an excuse to post this piece of vocal genius:

I really hope not!

&, I'd Rather Go Blind is probably in my top 5 favourite songs ever!
