      So true. Some musicians can emote through their instruments, and Hornsby is definitely one of them.
      I recently listened to an old Journey song, Send Her My Love, and Neil Schon does the same thing with an electric guitar (not an instrument you think of as emotional lol) in that song. The guitar solo sounds almost wistful.

    Bruce Hornsby played beautifully and was fully featured (btw. he started as Linda Ronstadts pianist) but yet again Bonnie missed the chance to demo her lead guitarist /slide guitar mastery on an important occasion of record. Like many great women she is naive about self promotion/ getting full recognition for real talent. This was definitely the place for that.

      "The Glow" is the masterpiece like "Nick of Time" not a bad cut on it. A real sleeper,, as it didnt make the cut to CD in the beginning of that technology. I think its her best offering.

    I love this song. Bonnie Raiit is the only one who can sing this song. AMAZING 😊

    Better and better each time. She just keeps layering more emotion each time.

    Timeless and undiminished by time--the song and the awesome artist Bonnie Raitt.
