Etta onstage in Long Beach:

I LOVE her!

Good to see you, Scoot!

My favorite is "At Last", also known as "At long last love"

At last
my love has come along
my lonely days over
and life is like a song
Ooh At last
the skies above are blue
well my heart was wrapped up in clover
the night I looked at you
I found a dream
that I could speak to
a dream that I could call my own
I found a thrill
to press my cheek to
a thrill that I have never known
well
You smile
you smile
oh and then the spell was cast
and here we are in heaven
for you are mine at last
I found a dream
that I could speak to
a dream that I
could call my own
I found a thrill
to press my cheek to
a thrill that I have never known
well
You smile
you smile
oh and then the spell was cast
and here we are in heaven
for you are mine at last
ooo yea
you are mine
you are mine
at last
at last
at last
at last

I sing it with her often.

I downloaded the file. It was 45 megabytes! Wow! It had a .flac extension. I don't know what type of file that is and I was unable to play it.

Oh no!..so sorry..I have the FLAC thing on my machine and it played...I'll convert it later to WAV and re-post it--right now I gotta go to town...

here's the FLAC dealy bob if you want to convert it yourself:

Sorry about the screw up---

[Doreen Peri]

That's ok. Thanks, Scoot!

I'll convert it.

Couldn't find the converter but I found an app called Cog for mac osx which plays .flac files and I'm listening now! Great stuff! Thanks for sharing!

Alright! Sorry about the mix up--I converted the whole show and corrected the link above and added At Last just for you...It should play for everyone now...

[Doreen Peri]

Thanks, Scoot!

I hope all enjoy these!

(hey, do you know how to convert a wma to an mp3? I could listen to it in wma form on windows media player but I can't seem to add it to my itunes playlist... I already have "At Last"... I just don't have "Love & Happiness".... hahaha... .that sounded funny.... )

Nah, I'm kind'a green when in comes to all that stuff--what I did was burn the converted FLAC to cd, then rip the cd in WindowsMediaPlayer, then uploaded the finished product to that "yousendit.com" dealy bob.....
