    Bonnie's an amazing and underrated blues guitarist. The way she picks and slide in the same tune is outstanding. Woman's got soul

      Wil Morris - Bonnie is not under rated. She is simply fantastic and most blues lovers do acknowledge that.

      @@andrematulich2091 Nope, she aint. She won the prize for US best slide guitarist over such as Ry Cooder some years ago... But oc she´s underrated in the modern world of commercial scrap music.

    It was the summer of '86 or '87 when my wife and I saw Taj Mahal playing a solo acoustic gig at the State College Art fest. He gave a great performance but I thought it odd that such a great musician was playing such a laid back and small venue. Still, I sure won't complain.

      Did you know they met when they were both in college? They used to preform at the Gas Light I think, memory is fading but they have known each other since before Taj made it big with the soundtrack of "Sounder"

      I saw them together at Skidmore College in what I'm guessing was either 1971 or 72. Taj was the headliner; Bonnie had just put out her first album. I didn't realize that they knew each other until reading your post. For about a half hour before the show, they sat on the side of the stage jamming as if they had just met and were able to gel beautifully from the start. That was really the best part of the show. There were no mics on, but being in the first row, we had quite a musical experience!

    Bonnie Raitt showcases her acclaimed slide skills as she duets, for the first time, with country blues and world music legend Taj Mahal as the two perform “Done Changed My Way of Living” on The Today Show on July 7, 2009.

    B Rait... you are on holy ground darlin
    I'm making a gold palladium alloy in my lab... it rings like a bell... I'm starting with aluminum... like a 10" ex aluminum pie pan I use to clean and roll on... if ya know what I mean?... and I was looking at it... thinking about an old friend... Mr Dupero in Escondido, California... invented the Dobro guitar... that really nice gold palladium pie pan would make a dandy guitar squawker or whatever you call em... I'll see what I can come up with

  • @guitarnowskisjamarama3759
    @guitarnowskisjamarama3759 14 років тому

    @71sunset ... Bonnie was tearing it up (and pretty highly respected) as a serious blues woman before she started making more pop-oriented music (and finallly some money) in the late 70's, beginning with "Sweet Forgiveness". She always had great chops; just not much commercial success before she started with the pop music.

    Good4U,& big deal.My 1st comment rests as is.How many Grammys did the people I mentioned win??Grammys my arse-Taj should have a bucket load!Starting with The Natch'l Blues-if not the previous.But Eric Clapton...oohhh,wow.Same old historic crap(ask BB King)So yr comment is not only misguided,but ignorant.

    UA-cam videos are like a party where the song poster invites others to come and enjoy.
    "BR leaves me cold-easy to see why here." Yeah, nothing but grimaces from Taj always warms a partner.
    "Same old historic crap."
    b. NYC; raised in Mass. listening to jazz. Taj is natch'l for Mississippi blues
    Since you didn't ask, I don't like Clapton's blues. I like Taj since 1969. Now go troll.
    Every party has an asshole who comes just to complain about the food, the drinks. who else was invited.
