BOB DYLAN AND ETTA JAMES
Providence 1986 [no label, 1CD]
Live at the Marriott Hotel, Providence, RI; July 10, 1986. Very good to excellent soundboard.
US soul singer Etta James, best known for the tracks At Last and I’d Rather Go Blind, died on January 20, 2012, aged 73. It was announced in 2011 that the singer had been diagnosed with leukaemia and was undergoing treatment. James began singing in a group aged 14, before she embarked upon a solo career where she signed to the legendary Chess Records label. The BCC reported that legendary producer Jerry Wexler once called her “the greatest of all modern blues singers”.
This is an after-hours jam session with Bob Dylan and Etta James and her band. The Bob Dylan Examiner reported that “In the early hours of the 10th, Bob Dylan joined Etta James and Shuggie Otis on stage at the Providence Marriott Hotel. You can almost hear Dylan smile as he kept repeating the same suggestive verse of “I’m A King Bee” (The one about “making honey”).”
Thanks to the person who shared this on Dime in 2005; and to everyone who kept the show alive.
