The one and only. (You'll notice how I don't use that phrase here often. :-) )
Bonnie Raitt is the daughter of Broadway musical star John Raitt, and her own musical style - a mix of country, blues and rock and roll - couldn't be farther from the show tunes her father performed. She enjoyed a strong reputation for being one hot rockin' blueswoman in the 1970s with classic albums such as Give It Up, Takin' My Time, and Home Plate.
Commercial success finally came for Bonnie Raitt in 1989 with her LP Nick Of Time, which one three Grammys - Album of the Year, Best Female Rock Vocal Performance, and, for the title song, Best Female Pop Vocal Performance. Other hits from the record included "Have a Heart" and a cover of John Hiatt's "Thing Called Love." Her 1991 album Luck Of the Draw was an even bigger success, and it featured the hit singles "Something To Talk About" and "Not The Only One."
She looks more beautiful with age. She turns sixty this November 8. :-)
