Nine-time Grammy Winner, singer-songwriter and guitarist Bonnie Raitt is back with her sixteenth studio album Slipstream, first album since her Souls Alike in 2005.
It is totally understandable why she has won those Grammy Awards over her lengthy career. Raitt, in my mind, is one of the best musicians of all time. She is an incredible vocalist and a great guitarist. She has demonstrated through the years that she can sing wide range of music styles, all of them extremely well - mostly blues and rock but also including pop, folk and even some country. The best thing about her is the fact that she has such a soulful tone and her creation tends to be so bluesy. Raitt, as a singer, is also grainy when she needs to be grainy, and smooth when she needs to be smooth. When you hear her sing, you can tell that she is doing so many things right as a songster and it just astounds you every time you hear her sing.
Raitt’s upcoming album Slipstream produced by Joe Henry contains twelve tracks and set for release on April 10, 2012.
