Bonnie Raitt

This album feels like an open-door invitation to a private soundstage where the barriers between performer and audience have dissolved. It is a communal celebration of craft, centered around Bonnie Raitt's unmistakable bottleneck slide guitar and her voice, which has only grown more resonant and empathetic with time. The atmosphere is one of mutual respect and relaxed excellence, as if these legends are playing primarily for the joy of hearing one another.

Moments Worth Listening For
The hushed, intricate vocal harmonies with Alison Krauss on Paper Airplane.
The gritty, dual-slide guitar interplay with Ben Harper on Two Lights in the Nighttime.
The effortless, smoky piano-and-vocal trade-off with Norah Jones on I Don't Want Anything to Change.
