Hopefully the future still has much in store for Raitt, who is still one of the great songwriters and vocalists in Americana music. In addition, her recently released album Dig In Deep received acclaim from critics across the board. Raitt continues to be a huge influence on her genre she earned a nomination for “Artist of The Year” at the 2016 Americana Music Awards. Kicking things off with “About to Make Me Leave Home,” Raitt and her fantastic band quickly put the show into high gear by following this with a NRBQ cover, “Green Lights.” Many of Bonnie Raitt’s bigger tunes were also performed including “Nick of Time,” (the title track of the album she was touring for at the time) “Love Letter” and “Have A Heart.” The show concludes with “Willya Wontcha” a number off of Bonnie Raitt’s 1982 LP Green Lights. Raitt, however, was a veteran of this hybrid genre, and this performance feels fluent without being too glib. In the next few years, acts like The Bottle Rockets, Blue Mountain and Whiskeytown would be formed and create a new sub-genre of country-rock music.
Americana was enjoying a bit of a renaissance, with Uncle Tupelo on the verge of releasing their debut album.
This performance, from December 31th, 1989 at the Oakland Coliseum Arena in Oakland, CA, shows Raitt at a time period when this type of music was thriving. One of many great pioneers who oversaw the creation of the Americana/alt-country genre, Bonnie Raitt is one of traditional American music’s great treasures. 0:00:00 – Bill Graham intro and Bonnie Raitt opening banter
