Any question about Bonnie’s supremacy as a Rock/Blues vocalist will be put to bed by this vid. My favorite band of hers and her nuanced, effortless singing on display here certainly never more masterful. And a sneaky great guitarist on top of it. This is a treasure.
The young Bonnie, omg, what a beauty and what a voice. She was awesome from the very beginning ~ so original and I forgot how cute her dimples were!!! She's just amazing, so much soul and on the slide too.🌹🌹🌹
Played all her early cassettes till they wouldn't play any more. Found CD replacements at a record store in Seattle late 90's, cashier said when bagging 10 CD's, Bonnie Rait fan? Saw her live on my birthday 2008. Best b-day ever! My heart weeps for her.
I agree, there's something about 70's music, it sounds honest / truthful (if that makes sense). After the 1980's, it is my second favourite decade musically. 2☮️✨😊
Heard (and owned) all this on LPs all those years ago. There were so few bands built around a woman, which is really a testament to her talent. Seeing folks like these play live or on "video" didn't come often. So much fun to see Bonnie and bassist Freebo on stage. Brings it all back.
It’s a shame this video doesn’t have more likes. Bonnie should be a legend! She’s an incredible talent and that voice! People would kill for her tone and perfect pitch. Love you, Bonnie!
The odds of some novel commentary that hasn't been mentioned about Bonnie just doesn't exist. So I'm picking ' that's such a wonderfully bad ass honey boo.' Thank you for the treasure.
Bonnie at her peak here. I've always particularly liked those songs of emotional desolation where she sounds so lost and broken. One of her finest was the beautiful Nothing Seems to Matter. Nobody does songs like these better.
First heard this on the album "Give It Up" in a pad in Fitzroy Melbourne back in 1973. Wish I was right back there now!! "Under the Falling Sky" is one of my favourite tracks on my favourite Bonnie album.
@@pauldobbyn2380That was such a fantastic album! I still have it. Love the title track, but also really love “Been Too Long At The Fair”. She’s an amazing artist who never really got her due. So many people don’t even know she recorded music in the 70s 🙄
🎉a emotional uplift ,a spirit filled joy and calm, till that slide guitar started then comes the sway, and the shimmy, and things like that there 😊❤Amen Kenneth
This is fantastic. I like the song selection better than the Montreaux DVD (not that I don't like that DVD, don't get me wrong) but I love this. Sometimes I forget what a breathtaking young woman she was.
Thank you soooo...wonderful to hear ....good ol archives... To a Beautiful woman & of course all your talented musicians... Keep well & Blessings to all
This is definitely one of my favorite concert videos by Bonnie Raitt, Thanks for sharing it on your excellent channel! I actually have the privilege of knowing and listening live to the fantastic guitarist Will McFarlane playing with her in the video
This is great! This is around the time I first heard her on KMET in LA. "Angel from Montgomery." That was an unusually mellow record for me to buy as a young rockin' fella.
There is the Bonnie I love. She sings this faster in some shows. I have seen Her more than any other person. Except Greg & the Allmans . I lived in Mempis for over 40 yrs. She played there alot. At Memphis in May one year, a 3 day festival on the banks of the MS river, she played her set on her stage. The Doobie Bros. played on the second stage, I think it was them. She joined them , Broke it down. Then it was time for Jimmy Vaughn and the Fabulous Thunderbirds. She joined them. Any way, it was three stages, she played them all and kicked ass. All of them ended on the last stage and it was fantastic. Thanks Bonnie. Red Rocks was pretty great in '80 too. There was the ones with you and Jackson, Ann Peebles was great. Kebmo,etc. You have always been my sisters and I hero. Girl, you are just a badass. Always have been,always will be. Lol. I sure hated about John Prine this yr. I got a t shirt at the Helena AK Blues fest one yr. It said "life is the blues". That about says it all... Hope you are doing well. Love ya, peace.
Heard her that year at a casual outdoor student center concert at Madison College (now JMU). From that time forward, she's been at the top of my list of favorite artists!
1977, I walked away from a recording contract in 76 due to the construction of it. Spent 5 hours disusing it what Clarence Clemons before I made my decision. I made the right decision. I do miss playing and many of the people I work with, all my bass strings are older than they are. I have pulled them from the closets to have access to them. Bonnie Raitt belongs in the Hall Of Fame!!!!
Can't count the times I've seen Bonnie in concert over the last 47 years - hope to see again soon (Club Casino, Boston & Portland). My all time favorite singer !!!!

Love love love Bonnie!! I see she has her side part & her trademark white stripe is starting…she had her hair just like this when I 1st saw her in concert a million years ago…
Have listened to your music since the early ‘70’s and have MOST of your recordings! Saw performances in Seattle, LA & Milwaukee! You’re my favourite artist of all time!!
This is just so deliciously good. Thank you for uploading. There so many great things about this show, from Bonnie's effortless vocals, to her showmanship to her joyful groove. And how long has she been slinging that Stratocaster? So absolutely great for all these years. ❤
When i was 23 they featured Bonnie " live " on the radio at " WMMR 's Sigma Sound in Philadelphia . May have been her first concert on the East Coast .
Nice. Wish they had turned up her guitar a little. This takes me back to the very first time I saw Bonnie. It was at the Diablo nuclear protest. Goes back a-ways...She played just with Freebo, if I remember correctly. Inspirational! Good songs here - thanks for sharing.
Hello Nancy, yeah the seventies where great...first time I heard Bonnie was '74 and immediately stole my heart....Diablo photo's here www.bonnieraitt.eu/bonnie-activism/ on my fansite for even more memories...thanks for the feedback, greetings Eric
I was living on the CA central coast in the early 80's and my friends in Lompoc invited me down. We went to a local venue, and who was there? Bonnie Raitt's band, sans Bonnie. We had an amazing time and hardly anyone was there.
I worked on sound for your concert at Purchase College in '73. John Hall was playing guitar that night Been a flifetime fan ever since. I even was an usher on the No Nukes on the landfill in NYC. I love the smile and twinkle on your face while your playing here. You were smokin"
@Bonnie Raitt Ht Bonnie, Thanks you so much. I hung out with Reeve Little, and Peter Bell way back when. I remember you and Freebo playing at Jack's Place on Tuesday nights. You have been my muse since then, Thanks for your music? Your soul, and the light you bring to this crazy world. Stay strong. Much love. Tom.
I have done sound for dozens of top entertainers all over the world and I shouldn’t say unequivocally Bonnie rate is the best in the business bar none.
holy shit! made it through a whole hour without an ad! Less notable is the fact that I almost went to school with Bonnie Raitt. Wonder how going to a private HS would have changed my life!
@Bonnie Raitt hello bonnie! It will be a pleasure and an honor for me to be able to hear from you and perhaps have a good word. I hope my bad English doesn't get in the way too much.
I met Bonnie in little record store in Berkeley around 1986. The only customer in the place, I browsed as the cashier was chatting with someone by the entrance. One of the records was hers. When I went up to pay, the cashier said, "Bonnie Raitt, that's her." She came next to me and offered to sign the record. Why oh why did I say, "no, that's OK"?
she is a complete sweetheart , most famous musicians would not have been that kind . I met her too , briefly at a protest to save The Headwaters REDwood forest in N Cal (Arcata) beautiful inside and out
@Bonnie Raitt no criticism, Bonnie, just admiration and inspiration. I would love to know When you learned to play the guitar like that. Seems like you just showed up with it. Love To You.
Any question about Bonnie’s supremacy as a Rock/Blues vocalist will be put to bed by this vid. My favorite band of hers and her nuanced, effortless singing on display here certainly never more masterful. And a sneaky great guitarist on top of it. This is a treasure.
I always have loved to watch her play slide 🎸🎸
Excellent video! Bonnie is the Queen of R&R Blues! Kick Ass Bonnie! Woohoo!❤️
She sings so effortlessly. These days, when singers want that rock timber, they would force it out by shouting. This is amazing.
so sweet ... that voice is a voice that will get your attention real fast!! Just a badass , she is a gem!!
I saw her perform this evening, her voice is still spot on 🤩
Bonnie is one of the best female singer ever!
The young Bonnie, omg, what a beauty and what a voice. She was awesome from the very beginning ~ so original and I forgot how cute her dimples were!!! She's just amazing, so much soul and on the slide too.🌹🌹🌹

The thing I like about 70s music is when you hear someone playing an instrument someone is really playing the instrument
There’s lots of new music where the artists play their instruments. Checkout the Beth’s or wolf alice.
She even asks the band at one point if they're in tune! I never heard Taylor do that!
Yes!!! Too many basic ass chord strumming wannabes these days

this whole performance is so beautiful, all the kinks just make it more soulful, amen to them all , sincerely, nik xxxxxxxxx
I just found my new favorite early Bonnie - thanks!!!!
The one and only. Beautiful. A true musician
Amazing voice and brilliant slide player. Natural talent and pure class. Great band as well.
I just saw her for the first time and she sounds the same now!
@@karenglennon1995 She is a faily old lady now. I'd love to meet her. I have the same dimple.
I don't think I've ever seen a more beautiful and talented woman.
It’s a shame this video doesn’t have more likes. Bonnie should be a legend! She’s an incredible talent and that voice! People would kill for her tone and perfect pitch. Love you, Bonnie!
Anyone who doesn’t think she’s a legend is daft, tasteless dipshit. She’s genuinely incredible.
I agree completely! She’s an amazing artist…and has been for 50 years! Imo, she’s one of the best.
Some people have no taste. She is a one person wonder. You can just listen and never get tired.
The odds of some novel commentary that hasn't been mentioned about Bonnie just doesn't exist. So I'm picking ' that's such a wonderfully bad ass honey boo.' Thank you for the treasure.

❤️🔥What an incredible treat! Love, love, love this special soul, this beautiful person, who just won song of the year for 'Just Like That'
She played Good Friday in Sydney, a special person, speaks to the audience and sings with such sincerity, smiling eyes…but that voice!
Nothing compares.
She was allways on my radar, but really appreciating her more as i get older
Bro, how is this video quality better than the 1992 Germany concert XD This is so awesome.
🎉a emotional uplift ,a spirit filled joy and calm, till that slide guitar started then comes the sway, and the shimmy, and things like that there 😊❤Amen Kenneth

this is so good!!!! So different! 70's California + soul!
She is absolutely stunning and supremely talented ❤
Thank you soooo...wonderful to hear ....good ol archives...

Wow！ Her voice ＆ guitar are so comfortable to listen to . Just LOVE her music . ❤❤❤

She writes the most beautiful love songs.
Great funky concert. Love the Freebo chemistry. Miss that guy. Sing on and on Bonnie. ❤

Saw Bonnie 3 weeks ago in nyc. Can’t count how many times since first time in 1974. Wonderful back in the day, but better than ever. freebo!
This is great! This is around the time I first heard her on KMET in LA. "Angel from Montgomery." That was an unusually mellow record for me to buy as a young rockin' fella.
She is the real deal, no nonsense no frills no fakery
Just rock and roll ❤

Saw Bonnie at The Whole Coffeehouse, Dinkytown...I think it was '71, maybe '70...
I need to see her again...
Love Bonnie's music from way back in the days 70's!

Thanks for posting. Love her voice. She was such a stunner
She's the best..And she still is a stunner..
Manel, she is still ALIVE!
How could you dare to write that Bonnie Raitt was a stunner. Manel, you are so stupid and ignorant.
Still is a stunner!
Still a Stunner :)
You save my life. Sweet forgiveness 💖
wonderschön
live forever Ms Rait... and... carry on, y'all... loudly... please 🙏
you rock 👏
Muchas gracias Bonnie, por tanta buena música! besos desde España!! rock roll!!
Yo también soy española y me FASCINA esta mujer. Para mí ella y Rod Stewart son los dos mejores cantantes de la historia!!! 😃
