"Bonnie
Raitt" (1971), her Warner Brothers debut, featured blues
classics by Robert Johnson and Sippie Wallace, as well as what would
become her trademark mix of R&B, rock, originals and contemporary
songs by great, usually little-known, songwriters. It displayed
precocious power – chops the performer had honed in East coast
coffeehouses and on the road as she'd joined the vanguard of the folk
and blues revival.
With six albums in seven years, "Give
it Up," "Takin'
My Time" and "Home
Plate" revealed her strengths as an interpreter of great songs
(Jackson Browne,
Randy Newman, Alan Toussaint, Eric Kaz). "Sweet
Forgiveness" (1977) was a particular highlight, its durability
won by years on the road (up to eight months a year), and its
accessibility landing Bonnie her first charting single, a funky remake
of Del Shannon's "Runaway."

With a new alliance in 1989 with Capitol Records and
producer Don Was came Bonnie's breakthrough, the hugely successful
"Nick
of Time." Garnering four Grammy Awards in 1990, including Best
Album.
With nine Grammys and virtually non-stop touring under
her belt, Bonnie Raitt decided to take a break and enjoy some of the
well-earned rewards of life off the road. Spending time mountain biking,
hiking and doing yoga, enjoying family and friends and traveling for fun
instead of work brought her a great sense of renewal and purpose.
Of course, Bonnie Raitt never really went too far away,
managing to sing and play on numerous friends' records (duets with B.B. King,
Ruth Brown, guest spots with
Keb' Mo',
Ladysmith Black Mambazo,
Bruce Cockburn, and tracks on the tribute
records for Stevie Ray Vaughan, Lowell George, and Pete Seeger).
