Bonnie Raitt Bartenders Blues

[@thestraydawgs]

This is a GREAT song. I've heard many versions, but they are all good because it is a GREAT song. And so true to life. God bless all the good bartenders out there that take care of us when we need it.

[@mikestevenson7777]

Thank you Bonnie !!!

[@bonniechops1]

Excellent cover of this classic song 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👌🏻

[@garylee23]

She does a fantastic job on this song, She adds so much feeling … but that’s the Bonnie I know on all of her music… love her music

[@patticriss2238]

Love this version. She is a monster singer. 💙

[@drumlover1687]

My my my, That voice is a gift from god!

[@onevoiceofmany6302]

Bonnie is my favorite singer of them all. Love her slide guitar playin' too...........Nobody does it better than Bonnie.

[@leoarcilla6382]

Rolly my pal during our high school days in the 70s harmonize with me whenever i sing this song. These days when i sing this song i feel he still harmonise with me. God bless your soul freind, i know you're singing with the angels up above

[@lousalute4220]

I like the covers by George Jones, Bonnie etc etc .. but for me James Taylor wrote it and nailed it !!

[@williamweber1010]

Yes, a big honor to James Taylor that George Jones covered Bartender, but Taylor wrote it.

I love the way she sings this song....man, she's awesome. I'm touched, sends chills down my back the way she sings.

[@piyabiswas9475]

This song is so meaningful.. true love always try her level best to keep her loved one from going astray.. she gives her every effort to keep her love in safe place.. but sometime the other one could not understand her love and heart.. the person takes as a game and if she is a child of God she keep her prayer to the God who is ruller of earth.. who gives and can take also to teach us lifelong lesson and keep all of us in His shadow. Sometime due yto anger or other ..we can lost every happiness in life .

[@sawbilly2]

I got to say. Nobody i mean nobody can lay a song on you like Bonnie Raitt. What a dang national treasure she is!

[@sudsfour4553]

Start with a great song. JT, Bonnie, Amy, and George all do it differently. but all do it wonderfully.

[@rickca217]

Should hear this Lady sing, *comming Home*,, puts chills on my arms

[@lisadiannemillerjackson3995]

I have seen and heard Ms. Raitt in Nashville (at the new opry), in Gainesville, in Jacksonville WITH MY CHILDREN once, and had a backstage pass WITH LANCE at the Fairgrounds in Jacksonville, and one other place I cannot remember where it was. Bonnie Raitt is to women guitar players what Leon Russell was to piano players. I probably saw her again but I'm not sure if it was really her or a lady that looked exactly like her. I can't remember. We sent her a musical text before Lance passed away. Bonnie Raitt was a definite fave of mine and Lance also.

Pretty nice job by Bonnie. Thanks to James Taylor for writing it for George Jones. "Tailor-made" for ol' George. Vince Gill does a superlative job on it, too. Lots of great interpretations on this great story-song. If current Nashville writers would buckle down and tell "real" stories instead of the disposable "weekend/ pickup truck /down by the river/drinking beers" songs, the song might be worth singing. That stuff should be written on toilet paper.

[@bobwerber2984]

Forget it. The producers and record companies won't let them do it anymore.

[@garyreynolds4780]

amen.....

[@ArkRed1]

Yes, yes, yes!!!

[@brucecarey1780]

Listen at 1.20 speed to enjoy the magic.! Just magic.!

[@thedudeabides3930]

good call

[@williamnelson8578]

Her pal JT wrote this for George Jones. Both did superb versions.

[@rlestourgeon]

nice

[@billephilip]

Look up Amy Grant doing it for George's 50th concert. What a sexy voice and just nails the song

[@colpayz212]

That's my favorite cover of this great song.

[@Bogeyfire]

In my opinion, they both nail it. What is awesome about these two women is, the key change after the lead break. I don't think the original by Taylor does that. It's subtle, but makes it "real blues". (err... Bluesy Country?)

[@MrJackchap]

Love you Bonnie Raitt❤️

[@rachelwatkins3374]

Love it.

[@dlandry5]

This song was written by James Taylor in 1977.

[@nickhollier]

+Donna Landry Giuliana And George Jones performed it best

[@nickforbes-warren6602]

Trisha Yearwood also did a good version I recall.

[@davidbarnett1740]

NO ... JT did it best,

[@lanes58]

[@phillipfrazier7669]

i am going to turn 55 on my next birthday, and i think that miss raitt is such a pretty girl and did such a wonderful job on this song

[@stephenleblanc6638]

I've been in love with her ever since I first heard her.

[@leokreimer6492]

James Taylor is a soul toucher.

[@sobm3]

Written by James Taylor.

[@michaelstone8773]

No, George Jones compositionj

[@Monkeiy9]

@@michaelstone8773 No, JT wrote it

[@bobdancer9569]

this is excellent. Check out Amy Grant's version of the same song from the George Jones 50th Anniversary tribute. It's even better

[@davidbarnett1740]

Sorry -- I did and Amy Grant is not as good.

[@connedillon8136]

Bonnie is SO GOOD on this. Amy Grant has a more recent version - NO MATTER - Bonnie is so very, very much better.

[@billephilip]

Amy Grants voice is better and sexier.

[@mackhomie6]

it's too slow. she does a good job, but the spots that should be the high points are just dragged on too long to have maximum impact
