      Country? Blues, baby. John Prine was a fellow alumnus of the Old Town School of Folk Music in Chicago, as was his good buddy Steve Goodman who wrote “City of New Orleans.” When I go to a class there, I always nod to Big Bill Broonzy’s guitar in the lobby.

    Bonnie Raitt is and always has been a blueswoman. In 1986, her career was considered pretty much over. Then, as she reached her 40s, she got off the drugs and booze and made the album that skyrocketed her into superstardom. She is such an amazing slide guitarist.

    "How the hell can a person go to work in the morning then come home in the evening and have nothing to say?" Such a great line. John Prine wrote this song about an old woman along with many other amazing songs while he was a Chicago mailman in his early 20's. The movie critic Roger Ebert discovered John after he left a movie theater to go to a nearby folk club to get a beer because his popcorn was too salty. It was open mic night there and he saw John's performance. Even though he wasn't a music critic he wrote an article about John and the incredible songs he performed including "Angel From Montgomery."

    • @HidingFromFate
      @HidingFromFate Год назад +4

      Wow, what a great story or anecdote. Somehow I never knew of this despite being very familiar with Ebert when he wrote for the Sun times and had his movie review show with Gene Siskel on PBS. Or I may have known of this but had long since forgotten.

    • @Jessica_Roth
      @Jessica_Roth Год назад +2

      Apparently getting discovered in Chicago is something of.a right place, right time thing. John Prine was discovered because Ebert walked in on open-mic night. Styx got their national deal because Jim Smith (the WLS deejay) found one of their local-label songs on the jukebox at a pizza parlor.
      And Rock Hudson was, er, discovered in the freight elevator at Marshall Field…but that's a bit of an "adults-only" story, so…

    I went to many of her shows in the 80's to see her rock out with the blues. As mentioned, the great John Prine wrote the beautiful, "Angel From Montgomery", the character, an older woman, feels life has passed her by & is looking for some meaning. She may be feeling older than her years & is dreaming of things that would make her feel special. I think most people feel this at some point in their lives, if only for moment. Some of her popular hits are "Thing Called Love", "Have A Heart" "Nick Of Time" & try "Love Me Like A Man", Blender Blues", "Walking Blues" for some of her blues songs.

    Amber,
    This song was on John Prine's first album from 1971. Sadly, COVID 19 took John away from us in April of 2020. He hag continued to write and perform until his death. Please more songs by him.
    After getting out of the Army during the Vietnam war, John became a mailman in Chicago. He wrote most of his songs while walking his route delivering mail.
    The story of how this song came about is long, too long to copy and paste the whole thing here. I'll link the whole interview where he talks about his writing style and how this song came about.
    "Eddie said, “Why don’t we write a song together?” And I said, “Jeez, I’ve never written with anybody. But I guess we could try.”
    So we went over to his apartment, and I said, “What do you want to write about?” And he said, “I really like that song you wrote about old people, let’s write another song about old people.”
    I said [laughs], “I can’t, Eddie, I said everything I wanted to in ‘Hello In There,’ I can’t do it.”
    So I thought for awhile and said, “How bout a song about a middle-aged woman who feels older than she is.”
    And Eddie goes, “Naw.” [Much laughter]
    But the idea stuck with me, and when I went home I started “Angel From Montgomery” that night. With the words “I am an old woman named after my mother”...

Some of my favorites by Miss Raitt are: Gamblin Man, Love Me Like A Man, Love Sneaking Up On You, Love Letter, Thing Called Love, Not The Only One, Nick Of Time and my #1 Fealing Of Falling! I saw here around 2013 in Baltimore inner harbor, a great concert Note: I'm pretty sure she played at S.R.V.'s funeral, two blues legends!!!

Fast forward to the 80s when Bonnie Raitt returned to the music charts. God gave her such a gift of a voice and guitar talent. RUclips shows us how many musicians have covered this one, and why not? It's a gift from Mr. Prine to the world.

    Bonnie is one of the greats, and is rated as one of the very best female guitarists.

She went back to her roots, and garnered 19 Grammy's, and FINALLY got inducted into the RRHOF.

    Amber, Another of you favorite artists, Susan Tedeschi, did a cover of this song. It's different than Bonnie Raitt's version but equals Bonnie's. In fact Susan and Bonnie have done a duet of this song live. You'd enjoy both Susan's version and the duet.
    As stated this song was written by the late John Prine. Prine was one of the most talented song writers of our time and many stars did covers of his work. He also wrote a song called "Paradise" "Paradise" was covered by John Fogerty, John Denver, Johnny Cash, Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, Randy Travis, and Dwight Yoakam among over 20 major Artists. John Denver's cover was probably the one most people would reference.

In 2000 she was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Rolling Stone listed her number 50 their list of the Hundred Greatest Singers of All Time.

    I have had a celebrity crush on .Bonnie since 1971. Blues is her passion and slide guitar is her thing. She has a remarkable way of showing strength and pain in her voice ....at the same time.
    Having a John Prine song to sing, a brilliant bonus! She can be playful too: "Something to talk about"

    There are endless John Prine songs to check out. His writing is amazing. I really like a live version of When I Get To Heaven. It was on his final album. He can be both earnest and whimsical. Amber’s pretty spot on in the meaning. Prine is so good with pathos.

    Bonnie Raitt! Delicious blues! Her whole Nick of Time album is sublime and I know you have reacted to a couple of songs from it already. A really sassy one that you might really enjoy is "Thing Called Love." Her guitar licks on that are hot and the bass is strong.

  • @rebo2610

    This is one of my favorite Bonnie Raitt songs. She's primarily a blues singer. I love her! Others have mentioned John Prine - definitely do that! An amazing songwriter!

    Bonnie's self-written song "Just Like That..," from her most recent album of the same title was just nominated for this year's Song of the Year Grammy award. The nomination came as a surprise as it is the only one of the nominees that was NOT released as a radio hit single. Also, the ONLY song nominee written by only one songwriter, I might add. Check it out and get ready to be taken on an unimaginable journey. Have tissues on hand. Yeah, it's THAT good.

    Bonnie had some great rocking blues songs - check out Thing Called Love or Something To Talk About. Bonnie was first known for folk and blues - long before she was a mainstream singer

    I've been singing her praises for the longest time here on your channel...Bonnie Raitt's voice is pure "Mississippi river" smooth blues, just ambling down the line. My favorite is "Have a Heart" from the movie "Heart Condition" (1990) with Denzel and Bob Hoskins. But her cover of "Can't Find My Way Home" is sumptious golden honey vocals that will melt your heart. It's recorded live from 1972 and is gorgeous and begins about 2:45 minutes into the recording Bonnie and Lowell George & John Hammond - it has over 6 million views. Recorded in Ultrasound Studios, Hempstead NY, October 17, 1972 (Bonnie, I believe was 19 y.o. when she sang this beautiful song by Stevie Winwood).

    Saw Bonnie at the Ryman back in May & she was every bit as good as she was when I first saw here in Vermillion, S.D. back in 1974 (opening for Jackson Browne). Love her, what a woman, what a gift.

    @christianmattison6096 Год назад +2

    I've always loved Bonnie Raitt! She does a great job with this John Prine song. He's a true story teller. You'd love his songs, "Sam Stone", "Grandpa Was a Carpenter", "Paradise", and "Hello in There". This barely scratches the surface, but these are my favorites.

  • @annbennettyoung6002
    @annbennettyoung6002 Год назад +1

    You should check out her song "Woman Be Wise" with Sippie Wallace. I have heard Bonnie Raitt live often - both in small clubs and large arenas. She is simply amazing.

    Fun fact: Bonnie and Jackson Browne have been friends since they were teens. They have sung and played on several songs together. Her backing vocals, along with Rosemary Butler, on JB's 'Here Come Those Tears Again' is stellar.

    BB KING said “I came up in a macho world and never thought I’d ever declare the best living slide guitarist to be a woman. Well, I’m declaring. I’m also saying Bonnie is as true-blue an artist as anyone before or since. She might be singing pop or she might be singing R&B, but she’s never far from the source. She has become part of the source herself. She’s a master.”

  • @541walker
    @541walker Год назад

    Bonnie is a great blues guitarist and singer. She has played a lot with all the old blues men and women. Her 'Women Be Wise' with Sippie Wallace is a must listen. Also, 'I'm in The Mood' with John Lee Hooker shows her love for the blues.

  • @chrisholcombe5433
    @chrisholcombe5433 3 месяца назад

    Definitely check out, for ballads, "Nick of Time," "Lover's Will," and "I Don't Want Anything to Change"; for more rocking stuff, "Love Sneakin' Up On You," "Thing Called Love," and "Gnawin' On It"; for blues, "Women Be Wise," "Love Me Like A Man (live)", "Shadow of Doubt," and "The Road's My Middle Name"; and for folk (yes, this woman does everything!), her recent Grammy-winning "Just Like That," "The Song About the Midway," and "My Opening Farewell." She's got a deep catalogue that goes all the way back to 1971.

    The great John Prine. Was fortunate to have seen Bonnie Raitt at a BYOB in a National Guard Armory back about 1978 in Mobile Alabama. Thanks for your reaction.

    Linda Ronstadt also does a beautiful cover of this song. I have had the pleasure of seeing Bonnie perform a few times. The best by far, was during her participation in the "No Nukes" tour with Graham Nash, Jackson Brown and Michael McDonald. Small (maybe 200 people) Ampitheater with seating on the grassy knoll. Beautiful Sonoma County late spring day. Everyone brought picknick lunches and spent the better part of the day listening to some amazing music.

    Bonnie Raitt is an absolute treasure. She is a tough, smooth-sangin', slide-playin' survivor of the 70's who came back from hell and took the music world by storm. Her 1991 release "Luck of the Draw" is sooo good, an awesome display of everything that makes this lady a true superstar.

  • @bradsense7431

    Bonnie Raitt is primarily blues. Listen to her cover of "Since I Fell For You" from her 1971 debut lp titled Bonnie Raitt. Many good songs on that LP. First heard her on a radio concert in 1974 and loved her music since.
