Give It Up

Bonnie Raitt

Smoky vocals and masterful slide guitar recorded with a loose, live-in-the-room warmth. A definitive blend of Woodstock folk and Memphis soul.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The weary, lived-in crack in her voice during the opening lines of Too Long at the Fair
The effortless transition from folk intimacy to a full Memphis-style brass section on the upbeat tracks
That specific, liquid slide guitar tone that feels like a physical touch on Nothing Seems to Matter
