*Note - Music starts around 2:10. A very young Bonnie Raitt with John Hammond, Jr., Lowell George, & Freebo doing a Tommy Johnson song, "Big Road Blues". Studio chatter & tuning go on til 2:10 where the music begins. Enjoy this flashback to 1971!
No worries we want to hear the whole damn thing and there ain't enough of it lol! This was back in the days when people were not rushing after the hare all the time.
***** she was trashed. She admitted that in a story later in her life. This was made into an album, but I've had it before the album was made. It was given to a friend way, way back & he passed it along to me. I've had it forever, but it's such work to go through & divide. (at least for me. I don't know how). I have 45 minutes from my bootleg tape & still can't figure out how to divide it again. I got 2 outta it. I went to the album & listened. From what I heard, this is different. Think she was maybe 20 - 22. John Hammond isn't as good on the blues harp as he is now. :))
@@MyMoppet52 Right on bro she drank a lot but man that was one of her best music ever. I said "one of her best" cause she still has it though with a different intensity.
God, I love her... A beautiful songbird angel, that I wish I would've met 50 years ago...
