Description:
“Jump Into Love,” released by Etta James in 1976 on Chess Records, finds the legendary vocalist blending her signature soul grit with the sleek, rhythmic pulse of mid-’70s funk and disco. The track’s tight rhythm section, shimmering strings, and horn accents set the stage for Etta’s fiery vocal delivery — equal parts sensual and defiant.
