Thanks. Saw her singing this one in concert about this same time. Lah, that long hair must have been the high water mark of the 70s. Just recently listened again to her album "Luck of the Draw," as fine now as it was in 91. ("Something to Talk About" "I Can't Make You Love Me")

Something to Talk About has to be my favorite.
Runaway (the Del Shannon original) is my favorite.
We've seen her in concert 7 times, including twice at Jazzfest in New Orleans - most recently last year.
Jeff M.
Patti - Oh, I really like Bonnie Raitt. Such power in her music.
I've seen Bonnie Raitt in concert three times. Great, underrated singer!
