I hope they eventually get around to reissuing ALL her OOP Chess albums... doubt it though!
I wrote to Ace thanking them for the reissues and asking for more
They told me that 2 more are planned in 2012. Does anyone have any idea how many remaining that would leave un-reissued from Etta's Chess discography?
These are the ones that I know have been released on CD and are part of my collection:
At Last!
The Second Time Around
Rocks The House
Call My Name
Tell Mama
Losers Weepers (on its way from Dusty Groove)
Come A Little Closer
Etta James (1973 album, which I've seen also called "Only A Fool" on Wikipedia and AllMusic)
Looking on Wikipedia, it looks like these are other albums Etta recorded for Chess, and I don't think any of them have been reissued on CD:
Etta James Sings For Lovers
Etta James Top Ten (which is listed as a compilation with several new recordings)
The Queen Of Soul
Etta James Sings Funk
Etta Is Betta Than Evah!
I didn't really discover Etta until 1979 with "Deep In The Night", so I'm not really sure about those early albums. Does anyone know of others that might be missing from either of those lists?
