who did bonnie raitt do a collaboration with for a cd?

Question

alright, im having the hardest time trying to find a cd that my mom used to play when i was a kid every morning before school. i was hoping somebody would know what i was talking about. i asked my mom and she said it had bonnie raitt in it but she was singing with another woman. the entire album had a real blues feel to it. nothing was to pop or rock, just strictly guitar, drums,and vocals. i want to say maybe it was ruth brown singing along with her but after doing some research i couldnt really find and entire cd they did together, just a couple of singles. oh and if it helps, the last time i heard this cd it was around 1994-1996. so perhaps it came out before that? i really hope someone can help me. i would LOVE to hear it again. thanks for reading

Answer 1

Hey now Ashley. I'm a big fan of Bonnie's (like your mom) and don't recall any collaboration cd per se, but I think you are thinking of her Road Tested cd that came out in 1995. She had guests like Ruth Brown (and others) on that one. Here is a link for you to read. Hope this helped :)

Answer 2

Are you perhaps thinking of Sippie Wallace's album Sippie? Bonnie played on that and toured with Sippie, who was a mentor. You can also try Katie Webster's Swamp Boogie Queen or Ruth Brown's R & B = Ruth Brown-all fit within that time frame. I don't know of any collaboration CD, which would mean attributed to both people, but Bonnie has played more on other people's records than she has on her own.

Answer 3

Wow, that's really hard to say, because Bonnie Raitt has had a long career and has performed with almost everyone in the music business at one time or another.

I'm sure you can find a discography of all her recorded music with a couple of minutes of searching online. Then look through it and see if any song titles ring a bell.
