Singer Etta James (January 25, 1938–January 20, 2012) performing her song "I'd Rather Go Blind" at the Montreux Jazz Festival on July 11, 1975. Sadly, in the mid-1960s to early 1970s, addiction, severe physical abuse, and incarceration affected her personal and professional lives, but despite adversity, she continued to make music. At 37, Etta James made a musical comeback; the Montreux Jazz Festival was her first appearance.
