about

Strings already feature heavily in the Etta James version of At Last. Chris has always loved the string arrangement, the sound, her voice, and the song itself. His arrangement is almost an exact transcription of both the string parts and the lyrical, free rhythms of the vocal interpretation. The original song might not sound complex, but vocal lines are full of scoops and slides, play freely with timing, and are challenging to recreate. While it would be easy to simplify the rhythms, it would also take away some of the power and beauty of the original version. The non-vocal lines are as faithful as possible to the Gordon & Warren arrangement, with hints of the original rhythm and percussion accompaniment throughout, and a few new lines added to the second half.
