At the time of this concert Bonnie Raitt had been in the music business for twenty years. The album she was touring in support of, Nick Of Time (1989), was a comeback effort, produced by Don Was for her new label Capitol. After half a decade in the wilderness battling her bad habits and touring solo, she took the best possible revenge on the label who had dropped her (Warner Bros) by making a chart-topping, multi-platinum selling, Grammy-winning masterpiece. The blues-rock band she took on the road brought her new material and some old classics to life for enthusiastic audiences across the States.
Performed at The Henry J. Kaiser Auditorium, Oakland, CA, 26 November 1989 for broadcast on KMPX-FM.
Bonnie Raitt - guitar & vocals; Johnny Lee Schell - guitar, trombone; James 'Hutch' Hutchinson - bass; Walt Richmond - keyboards; Tony Braunagel - drums; Marty Grebb - keyboards, soprano & baritone sax
