    This is the blues baby! No country involved. Bonnie was a huge champion of the OG MISSISSIPPI blues musicians who never made any money in the day, taking them on tour with her, and promoting their music. This was my first exposure to "real delta blues", at her concerts. Thank you for the reaction.

    I love this woman Bonnie Raitt is a queen and I love singing her songs and this is one of my favorite all-time songs. She has made her used to singing all the time not too long ago. It’s one of those bluesy songs that just is just too cool.

    Bonnie Raitt is her own self, this entire album, I'm telling you, is a great one. "Nothing Seems To Matter" and "Love Has No Pride" and "If You Gotta Make A Fool" and "Give It Up (Or Let Me Go)" are all must listens from this album, which I have never tired of after 50 years.🎶 I know you'll love it all the way through✌

  • @lorioday8528
    @lorioday8528 Рік тому +2

    I am never one who likes the songs from great artists that "won all the Grammys and got the most radio play". But with Bonnie, there is no norm, there is no best or greatest. Every time she sings, she slays. She is the GOAT in her couple genres.
    That said...Bonnie Raitt, LP Nick of Time, 1989. This collection won 13 Grammys. Every song is a gem. Start with "Nick of Time". Then to "Thing Called Love", Love Letter", "Have a Heart", etc.
    Then go back to 1977 to EVERY single song on LP Sweet Forgiveness. You've done "Two Lives". Don't stop there! Every song on that album is better than the last. Trust me. PLEASE!!! ✌️🎶✌️🎶🩵

    Bonnie's dad was a famous Broadway singer/actor. When she was very young she ran off to the Delta to learn all about the Blues from the real thing, the old time Blues men.
    During her long career she has played with all the greats, like B.B. King & Muddy Waters.
    She was also good friends with Stevie Ray Vaughan & credits him with helping her get clean & sober.
    She & Stevie Wonder sang "Amazing Grace", acapella, at Stevie Ray's funeral.
    When you're talking about Bonnie, remember, she's always been considered a Blues singer/guitarist...one of the best. Forget Country. She's Blues.
    Hope you get around to "Love Letter"...one of her best & a fun one too.
    You'd both love it.

    @deborahchristian2318 Рік тому

    Bonnie is Blues to the Bone! Fell in love with her in high school and she’s been my favorite singer ever since. She never compromised herself or her music for fame and fortune, never sold herself out. I saw her last year live in Portland ME. Even in her 70’s she’s a force. Her slide guitar playing is legendary and she is sought after by many other artists of all genres for collaboration, 7:52 back up vocals and slide guitar. I once saw her in concert with BB King. She adored John Prine. And has been a mentor to Brandi Carlile. She does folk, pop, jazz, and quasi-country, but blues is her main thing. Fun fact, she’s a lifelong Quaker who’s deeply passionate about justice and civil rights. A very underestimated artist and human being ❤

  • @mojorider8455
    @mojorider8455 Рік тому +2

    She's got such a great voice, but Bonnie is a really good acoustic blues player in that finger pickin' style. she started out with the blues. The song was written by her friend Chris Smither and he also gave Bonnie some guitar lessons early in her career. He is a renowned acoustic folk-blues artist, keeping the tradition of that delta blues finger picking style alive. Check out her version of "Runaway"

    I love Bonnie Raitt, but this song, is one of my all time favourite songs. Stays on the main playlist and I listen to it once a week at least (6 times in a night if I'm into the whiskey and weed). Im so excited to see it on a reaction channel. I love watching people experience some of my favourite music for the first time. ❤

    Bonnie attended Ratcliffe College graduating with a degree in African studies. Bonnie always loved the Blues. She hung out listening to the likes of Buddy Guy, John Lee Hooker, Muddy Waters and several others. They took a shine to the gorgeous redhead who could rake on the slide guitar. She has honored thse relationsships by creating a foundation to assist these artists in their retirement years. Bonnie is one of the greatest slide guitar players on the planet. A legend and a national treasure.

    Been lucky to see Bonnie many times in New England where's she originally got her chops in the Boston folk/blues scene. Her prowess on the slide guitar was legendary..

    Her first two albums are classics, (this being the second, I think) with Bonnie laying claim to being one of the great slide guitar players of the time. She later summed it up pretty well with "The Road's my Middle Name" from the great 'Nick of Time' album. A real woman indeed. Thanks for this great choice.
