ARTIST :Bonnie Raitt
TITLE : Road Tested
ROAD TESTED was nominated for a 1997 Grammy Award for Best Rock Album. "Burning Down The House" was nominated for a 1997 Grammy for Best Female Rock Vocal Performance.
ROAD TESTED is the first live album of Bonnie Raitt's storied career, and the two-disc set easily gets across the magic she makes at her concerts. Recorded in 1995, at six shows in Portland, Oregon and Oakland, California, Raitt digs deep into her catalog for clever interpretations of blues, soul and even classic new wave songs that have shaped her musical vocabulary. Constantly paying homage to her musical roots, Raitt brings on such idols as Charles and Ruth Brown, as well as contemporary VH-1 co-horts like Bruce Hornsby, Bryan Adams and Jackson Browne, to add to the fireworks. And even though the cameos of these formidable talents add up to some delightful thrills, Raitt's pure singing, biting slide guitar and crack back-up band are the main reasons why she passes this road test with flying colors.
Recorded live at the Schnitzer Auditorium, Portland, Oregon on July 11-13, 1995 and the Paramount Theatre, Oakland, California on July 16-19, 1995.
