I got started with her in 1974...album called "Give It Up". I've met her, too. What a sweetheart! Humble and REAL. Love your reactions!

Pronounced "rate", and she's got some serious blues chops, and a killer voice as well (but you already know that, after one listen)...As much as I love her guitar playing, she had one of her biggest hits with a piano ballad (Bruce Hornsby on piano - another artist worth checking out), I Can't Make You Love Me. It's another side of her, but she breaks your heart with every word.

If Grammys were cars she would need a parking garage! Find a copy of her live "Road Tested" album and enjoy the ride! BTW her and Linda Ronstadt were friends and associates singing on each other's songs in the early years. Check out Linda Ronstadt's cover of Smokey Robinson's "Ooh Baby Baby"! It will amaze you. These ladies sang what they wanted not what the recording company thought would sell. That's what made them exceptional.

Every song is great. You can't go wrong. An inspiration to us girls. She was her own person and played steel string guitar. Her daddy was actor, John Raitt, pronounced, ray-it. She played the clubs up near Harvard. All the best musicians played with her.

I’m going to recommend songs from her first 2 albums…much stronger blues. “Mighty Tight Woman”…song written by Sippy Wallace in the 1920’s, and in 1920’s slang, ‘tight’ meant ‘outstanding’. “Woman Be Wise”, again by Sippy Wallace. Thirdly,”You Got to Know How”…I think this was also by Sippy Wallace. Her early work is my favorite because it is so blues heavy. And this song you just reacted to is a favorite.

Adogg, you are one of us. Goosebumps when Miss Bonnie sings about needing to be loved right is the absolute correct reaction, at least for starters, depending on proximity. Now I missed meeting Bonnie by a handful of years when the World was young. Y'see she was a "local girl" hanging out in Harvard Square, Cambridge Mass, where I drove cab beginning in 1979. Bonnie could be found during the '70s hanging in certain establishments which served potent spirits. Now think about that. If you were the right guy, right place - right time, you might have gotten lucky. But yeah, Holy sh-WOW!
