Bonnie does it Raitt

We posted about this album a week before it was released, but since then I've had the pleasure of actually viewing the DVD. So I've just got to share a little review with you. If you're a Bonnie Raitt fan, this concert is a must for your collection.

I'm amazed at how live shows are increasingly becoming so much better...the sound, mixing, and video editing is really great on this DVD. Of course, it doesn't hurt to have a state-of-the-art stage, where VH1 filmed this show.

Even better, once you've seen the DVD, then pop the companion CD into your car stereo. You can just see Bonnie singing duets with all her guest artists, Ben Harper, Norah Jones, Alison Krauss and trading guitar licks with Keb'Mo'.


My favorite tracks are probably "Something To Talk About," "Love Letter" (with Keb Mo')and a wonderful encore of "Love Sneakin' Up On You" with everybody on stage together. Plus a cut from her latest studio album, Souls Alike, "God Was In The Water."

Capitol gives us a taste of several videos on their eCard, plus a full length track of "Two Lights In The Nighttime" featuring Ben Harper doing a killer slide lead on lap steel.
