Bonnie Raitt- Bonnie Raitt-LP

Bonnie Raitt – Bonnie Raitt

Bonnie Raitt’s self-titled debut introduced her in 1971, right at the start of a career built around roots music, blues, country, folk, and rock. That mix is the reason this first album still matters: it places Raitt’s voice and guitar in the same broad American tradition she would keep exploring on the acclaimed records that followed. Her reputation as a collaborator with artists like Little Feat, John Prine, Jackson Browne, and Leon Russell also gives this debut extra interest as an early snapshot of a musician already moving in serious songwriter circles. This copy is a 1971 Green Label vintage pressing, priced at $20. The record is graded VG+, a strong everyday listening grade where a few light lines, sleeve marks, or small scuffs may be present, but not wear that should dominate the music.

Sound samples are included to help you get a feel for the music, but they may not always match the exact pressing or track version of the record listed. When in doubt, trust the photos and pressing information - that's the actual record you're buying.
