Bonnie Raitt - 1977 - Sweet Forgiveness (2001 Reissue) [mp3@320]  Bonnie Raitt  Wikipedia: Bonnie Lynn Raitt (born November 8, 1949) is an American blues singer, songwriter and slide guitar player. During the 1970s, Raitt released a series of roots-influenced albums which incorporated elements of blues, rock, folk and country. In 1989 after several years of critical acclaim but little commercial success she had a major return to form with the release of her album Nick of Time. The following two albums Luck of the Draw (1991) and Longing in Their Hearts (1994) were also multi-million sellers generating several hit singles, including "Something to Talk About", "Love Sneakin' Up on You", and the ballad "I Can't Make You Love Me" (with Bruce Hornsby on piano). Raitt has received 10 Grammy Awards. She is listed as number 50 in Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 100 Greatest Singers of All Time and number 89 on their list of the 100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time. Sweet Forgiveness  Artist: Bonnie Raitt Title: Sweet Forgiveness Release Date: October 16, 2001 Original Release Date: April, 1977 Label: Rhino ASIN: B00005Q46D Genre: Blues, Rock, Blues Rock Duration: 38:12 Wikipedia: Sweet Forgiveness is the sixth album by Bonnie Raitt, released in 1977. The single "Two Lives" was provided by the leader of bassist Freebo's former band Edison Electric Band, Toronto songwriter Mark Jordan. Raitt's cover of the Del Shannon hit "Runaway" was issued as a single, reaching #57 on the U.S. singles chart. AllMusic Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine: Since Home Plate brought Bonnie Raitt within shooting distance of the Top 40, thereby being the greatest chart success she yet attained, it made sense that she re-teamed with its producer Paul A. Rothchild for its follow-up, Sweet Forgiveness. Rothchild's modus operandi remains slickness, but he has backed away from his fondness for studio musicians, letting Raitt record the majority of the record with her touring band (who only were spotted occasionally throughout Homeplate). All this means is that the near-hit "Runaway" is almost a ringer, largely because it's a poor choice for Raitt's sweetly funky Californian rock that was obviously designed as a bid for a single, therefore it was slicked up more than the rest of the record (which remains slick, but not glossy). Sweet Forgiveness is actually looser than Homeplate, a little less constrained. Then why isn't it quite as successful, artistically? That comes down to a selection of songs that aren't quite as effective as those Raitt usually picks -- and, in that sense, "Runaway" was a good indicator of the album. However, the selection of material isn't bad. If the tunes don't happen to form into a whole, it's still filled with great moments, from Earl Randall's opener "About to Make Me Leave Home" to Karla Bonoff's closer "Home." Sweet Forgiveness may not be one of Raitt's unqualified successes (despite its hit status), it's still a solid record, one that's hard to deny if you're already a Raitt fan.  01 - About To Make Me Leave Home - 4:15 02 - Runaway - 3:57 03 - wo Lives - 3:50 04 - Louise - 2:46 05 - Gamblin’ Man - 3:28 06 - Sweet Forgiveness - 4:12 07 - My Opening Farewell - 5:21 08 - Three Time Loser - 3:19 09 - Takin’ My Time - 3:38 10 - Home - 3:26 Personnel: Bonnie Raitt - acoustic guitar, guitar, electric guitar, vocals, slide guitar Norton Buffalo - harmonica Rosemary Butler - vocals Lester Chambers - vocals Sam Clayton - conductor, conga Freebo - bass, guitar, vocals, fretless bass David Grisman - mandolin, mandocello Jef Labes - keyboard Maxayn Lewis - vocals Michael McDonald - vocals Will McFarlane - guitar, electric guitar, slide guitar Bill Payne - organ, synthesizer, piano, keyboard, vocals, Fender Rhodes J.D.
