Subject: RE: RIP Etta James - At Last - 1960

Message Detail:
"Her famed single "At Last" was her best-selling song of the week as well. It shifted 63,000 downloads, enabling its re-entry at No. 29 on the Digital Songs chart, with a weekly gain of 1,361%. "At Last" is one of James' 26 charting hits on the Billboard Hot 100 chart -- it rose to a peak of No. 47 on Feb. 11. 1961".

Billboard is just a lot of hot air, looking for Payola. One year, her song never breaks into US Top 40, but 50+ years later, it's her best selling single!!

Best,
John
