Bonnie Raitt On Returning To Folk Guitar Roots On 21st Album 'Just Like That'

[@HotMusicCharts]

I remember a looong time ago when Kelly won a Grammy, she started her acceptance speech addressing Bonnie Raitt, telling her how much she loved her and that it was fab for her to be in her presence.

[@manofiske3318]

'...a looong time ago.." What? LOL It's Kelly Clarkson . Relatively speaking, she's barely out of the womb ...a long time ago gimme a break

[@HotMusicCharts]

@@manofiske3318 Well it was 16 or 17 years ago... for me that's a looong time considering and thanking God for all I've done in all these years. It does go by very quickly though...

[@mokaLARE]

@@manofiske3318 16-17 are long for sure. So he definitely can say “looong time ago”. 😜

[@diananunez7]

And she just won SONG OF THE YEAR at the Grammys with this song!! She is INCREDIBLE!! ❤️🎶🌟

[@eduardamedeiros3570]

"Give me a live performance and I'll show what I'm capable of". THAT'S. HOW. IT'S. DONE.

[@debaerseamer9319]

Amen

[@bonitadiablo]

Bonnie is my musical icon! I love seeing her and no one deserves a lifetime achievement award more than her!

[@ivannano]

Bonnie is right up there with the best live performers.

[@riverhassett140]

Agreed! Her new tour is fantastic.

[@tomcooley3778]

Been a fan since the early 70 ‘s when she lived in Cambridge.

[@hualani6785]

@@riverhassett140 hope she comes to My area, But Its rare. When I visit US Lower 48, I always try to see if theres a Chance I can see Her While visiting. Shes an incredibly generous performer! Shes definitely there to make her audience satisfied and have a Great Time. Iʻll never be able to see her though w/Out dripping tears for John (Prine) & Stevie Goodman. 💔🖖🏼Bonnie🎶🎸

[@Ernie1978]

Oh man! A true Living Legend of Rock. Ms. Bonnie Raitt!

[@lecurvey]

Bonnie seems so sweet and lovely. Love that Kelly gosh to gush over her. She deserves all the praise.

[@vamanosninja4143]

I've never seen her on a talk show. Shows how cool Kelly Clarkson is.

[@Fiawordweaver]

She is brilliant. I loved seeing her in person.

[@wp9847]

I have seen Bonnie twice in concert and she is incredible. I love the way she sings and her songs. My favorite is "Women be wise".

[@billiegoodman4872]

Yes! She sings that one with the great Sippie Wallace out of New Orleans!

[@premapoojitanananda7947]

Thank you for having her on the show. Bonnie is literally at the top of my list to see in concert💜

[@ladypeace22]

Bonnie is a legend and so is Kelly 💖 I am so happy for you Kelly

[@cheriekreusel9453]

What a great woman Bonnie Raitt is! My grand daughter is 7 months old and I have already started her listening to the great women of music. Bonnie Raitt was the first. You ought to see her eyes light up when those guitar kicks hit! Been listening to this lady from the beginning. The best

[@Stratocus]

I first saw Bonnie Raitt in concert in NYC in 1974, again in London in 1978 and last in North Little Rock, with James Taylor, in 2019. Always brilliant and soulful and just as good as she's ever been.

[@christilehman-starr4428]

Yes I saw her in 1982 in a small club in Santa Cruz ca and she is solid. Good music as well as vocals. She is a true performer. She has put in as many hours as anyone of her mettle. And it shows. No digital fix or attitude can compare with it imo

[@bustergoldenrod]

Just saw Bonnie and her band again last month in Australia, they are still tearing it up!!!

[@MAAivoges]

Bonnie Raitt and Linda Ronstadt were queens in the 70s. They were my favorites. Just like Kelly.

[@fabianpillay1963]

I came across Bonnie Raitt a few years back when seeing Kelly Clarkson funnily call her out from Kelly’s 2006 Grammy on-stage acceptance speech. Bonnie Raitt is one of those legit, iconic musicians that made a place in the music industry.

[@tanagrigg7366]

I have seen her live, several times and she is spectacular!!

[@thesoundsmith]

I have heard two tracks from this album. BOTH left me in tears. Bonnie has the ability to turn any song into a personal journey, and take the listener along. (Also the organist has his concept nailed down.)

[@roseforsburg7544]

I have grown up with Bonnie Raitt. I love and respect her.

[@jmrinsyr]

Bonnie has always been one of my favorites. She just had a show locally put had to miss it due to a family illness. I truly hope to get the opportunity to see her.

[@4estdweller4ever]

I saw Bonnie live in Portland, OR back in the 80s. John Prine opened for her. I was already playing John Prine songs. One was Blow Up Your TV and You Done Stomped On My Heart. Bonnie’s live show took my breath away.

[@NanaPelletier]

I saw her in the 90s in Portland Maine. Bruce Hornsby opened for her. One of my favorite shows!

[@hualani6785]

To 4estdwellerinmyheart-Are you talking about “Spanish Pipe Dream” & “Take a Look at my Heart”? (Titles of Prine songs that contain lyrics close but Not exactly to what youre referring..) Then theres always the Happy enchilada🤣

[@4estdweller4ever]

@@hualani6785 Interesting! Never heard of the Spanish Pipe Dream title before but that is the song. The other one is a John Denver song. Somewhere along the lines I thought John Prine wrote it. John Denver did the first song too as a cover so maybe that’s where i got confused. We’re talking close to 50 years ago here so that’s my excuse 😂👍

[@TH-tl6sy]

Oh man! I have always loved Bonnie Raitt. Icon!

[@bobwait3629]

In the summer of 1977 in NYC (think NYC bankruptcy, "Son of Sam" murders, Reggie Jackson/Billy Martin feud, heat wave, huge power outage), there was a concert series in Central Park Amphitheater and a hill overlooking the venue where you could watch for free, from a distance. I saw Bonnie Raitt, Judy Collins, and Harry Chapin on different nights. What a time.

[@danamobley2755]

So excited to see Bonnie Raitt on Saturday, August 27 at Britt Music & Arts Festival!! Legendary!!!!!

[@mickmoorhouse9834]

She always makes me cry.....she is that good!!!

[@jayd8547]

I know the feeling. She’s a wonderful artist. Shes a wonderful person. Her impact is just profound. All the feels. ❤

[@billiegoodman4872]

Saw Bonnie at Mud Island in Memphis. I had chills sitting there watching and listening to her. I was blown away. Then I met her in Clarksdale, Ms at the Delta Blues Museum. We were together on the elevator talking and I kept thinking” what incredible talent could be this incredibly down to earth and kind?” She’s a really gorgeous lady too, petite yet a power house. I love her so.

[@kitano0]

Bonnie needs a Kennedy Honor!

[@emilyfrank8115]

I've been listening to Bonnie Raitt since the 60s. Finally she gets her rewards!

[@FacheChanteDeux]

I love Bonnie so much. One of the all time best singers/musicians we have ever seen and heard. It is a disgrace that some of the Grammy attendees didn't know who she was when she won. I don't expect much from the swifty and beehive crews, but I definitely expect more from people who are supposed to be musicians.

[@jayd8547]

Bonnie is an absolute LEGEND!!! ❤

[@jordanhanks]

What a great interview. I remember when KC won the Grammy and she gave Bonnie a shoutout during her acceptance speech bc she was nominated as well. Love this convo.

She was amazingly magical

Love the live version of Love me like a man.... ❤️

[@christilehman-starr4428]

Just listened to it yesterday. (On my Amazon music) And this interview is here on my YT feed. AI magic! Totally moved by the live version! Best ever for her voice. How amazing and funny that it took so many years for her to grow into and love her own voice! That is what I was struck by as I was listening. She is a beautiful human being. She has self love and that is a mirror for Kelly. Awesome ✌️✅🖖🏻

Great segment! Would love to see Ann Wilson come on some point this season before her new solo album drops!

The first time I saw Bonnie it was just her and her guitar in the cafeteria of all places at the U of M Duluth in the mid seventies. Fell in love then. I have seen her a few times when she gets remotely close to my area and am sooooo excited to see her with Mavis Staples this summer in St. Cloud. AND she recorded a song from another favorite ,Joey Landreth who I also saw when the Landreth Brothers were just starting out. Life is good.

[@gailmaas5061]

I've seen her in concert more times than anyone else. Never a bad show, even when she was drinking.

[@hualani6785]

UH OH a Donald cultist?

[@davequ]

I'm glad she won another Grammy tonight. I used to go see her in the early '70s at a little club in Boulder when she was doing songs by Sippie Wallace like "You Got to Know How." It's amazing the journey she's been on. Saw her at Red Rocks in 2016 and she killed. I hope she lives to be 100+.

[@gemmaluescher-verseckas1243]

My mom got gifted front row seats to a concert of Bonnie Raitt because the concert sold out when my mom had to work- so she wrote Bonnie Rarität management company to say she had been a loyal fan since the early 70’s . ( which means that I too have been that next generation- angel from Montgomery was my mom’s lullaby for me- I will be 50 in November)

[@lenoreleitch5297]

I wonder if Bonnie contacted the people in the news story that inspired the title track Just Like That. I hope they know how much she was touched. I flew to Vegas about 15 years ago just to see Bonnie and will never forget it. Been wailing along to her music forever.

Yikes. Kinda awkward when Bonnie talked about losing weight for Prince. Basically saying that one cannot be believably sexy when one is overweight. Kelly changed the subject FAST. 😬

[@KelliViti]

I don't think she meant it that way. You would have to know, understand, & keep in context. The specifics of what she is saying. She was talking about Prince only. She did not believe. Based on the women presented / objectified in all his videos. Especially In the 80s. All his girl musicians included. That he would believably be expressing how sexy he found her. In the context of a video / song. in the 80s everything Prince did was highly sexualized. In a very Specific way. It showed a preference. Lookup a video called Sugar Walls. Sheena Easten was a pretty, but very wholesome, safe artist. ( at least as presented ) She wanted to change her image. Watch the vid for Morning Train. ( her first big hit ) Then the vid for sugar walls written / produced, By Prince.
