Synopsis by Mark Deming

Since 1954, when she scored her first hit record with "Roll With Me, Henry," Etta James has been wowing audiences with one of the biggest, most powerful voices in rhythm and blues, and in 2001, just a few weeks shy of her 64th birthday, James proves she's lost none of her ability to move a crowd in this concert video, taped during an engagement at the Los Angeles House of Blues. Etta James and the Roots Band: Burning Down the House features James and her band performing "I'd Rather Go Blind," "At Last," "Your Good Thing Is About to End," "You Can Leave Your Hat On," and many more.
