If it were love, she wouldn't spit. Sorry, couldn't help myself.  |

Not sure what I like most about Bonnie Raitt: her voice, soul, or slide guitar playing.

Great example of a producer's role in helping an artist find their voice. She published a huge amount of work before she teamed up with Don Was, but his careful ear and appreciation of her art made her a household name.

Nice segue from "Freeway Jam,"—another example of minimal, melodic guitar work, only this time Bonnie on slide.

Just saw her in concert last Saturday night in St. Augustine, FL; she can tear up a guitar! Very gracious and sincere person on stage. Never really knew much of her body of work, but I was mega impressed with her guitar work.

This woman has had a strong voice for years, and she always has a tight funk band behind her. Love that sloppy slide guitar. |

I love the way she makes me that slide groan and wail.

Bonnie Raitt - "I Can't Make You Love Me" Live
this is the original "I Can't Make You Love Me" here with Bruce Randall Hornsby on piano.
"this song always brings tears in my eyes...
knowing you're in love w/ someone you cant have because it's just very wrong...and having just one chance to hold him is enough to treasure it for a lifetime...all i have are chances or maybe just a chance." |

Seeing her now is much different. Of course the crowd is a lot grayer and a little more sober also.  |

Damn. This, right now, is fine. Makes me want to go spend some money. Naysayers reconsider, recant, repent.

it's got me slowly turnin
I'm basting on the bone
I'm skewered like some drunken fool
In juices all my own
Bonnie Raitt cant get enough basting on the bone

Love the fiery grind of this tune.
Bonnie has honed her grit and authenticity to a fine point.
She knows pain.
