There are a few things in the world that are perfect. If you change them in any way, you just mess them up. The original recording of "At Last" is one of those perfect things.

"Where can you go, when your money is low? In the basement."
Performed by Etta with Sugar Pie Desanto. I love that song...

Something unusual during the farewell ceremony.

Looks like Christina Aguilera sprung a leak....

Last night at the Ann Arbor Folk Festival, one of Etta's former colleagues [[perhaps her former road manager, but I may have that wrong), came onstage between acts and told the audience of the service for her that evening. He then asked us for an ovation that could be heard all the way to California. We gladly obliged.
