About Bonnie Raitt
Bonnie Raitt developed her singing and slide-guitar playing through folk and blues, learning directly from performers including Mississippi Fred McDowell and Sippie Wallace. Her self-titled Warner Bros. debut appeared in 1971, combining older blues material with contemporary songwriting. Sweet Forgiveness later included her version of Runaway. A move to Capitol brought Nick of Time and Luck of the Draw, expanding her audience through recordings such as Something to Talk About and I Can't Make You Love Me.
