The Second Time Around [LP]

Etta James - The Second Time Around [LP]

Etta James' second album leans more toward pop than the fiery soul she's known for, with lush orchestration by Riley Hampton and a repertoire of '40s standards. Yet, her powerhouse vocals shine, proving she could master any style. R&B; still makes its mark, with the Berry Gordy-penned "Seven Day Fool" stealing the show, alongside "Don't Cry Baby" and "Fool That I Am," both charting crossover hits.
