Luck of the Draw Reviews
| 27 of 28 people found the following review helpful  Definitely, something to talk about!, By This review is from: Luck of the Draw (Audio CD) "Something to Talk About" was a big enough hit that this album got the attention of people who weren't familiar with Bonnie Raitt. If you don't know who she is, listen to "I can't make you love me" which just gets to me every time I listen to it. Raitt's voice has fascinating purrs, growls and soaring tones. Her guitar playing is outstanding and her style defies classification. For example if you like Country you'd probably like her, but if you hate Country music you'd also like her. Go figure. Bonnie Raitt is one of the most talented singer/songwriter/guitarists ever and why she isn't a bigger mega-star than she is just amazes me. She was the headline performer at our college homecoming in 1970 and she is still going strong strong strong. If you don't have any of her albums, this one is a sure winner to start with. Not a bad song in the bunch. 15 of 15 people found the following review helpful A Classic., By This review is from: Luck of the Draw (Audio CD) Both Raitt's cds Luck of the Draw and Nick of Time are worth owning. Luck of the Draw is slightly better I think with a stronger sense of identity. Great songs here like: "I Can't Make You Love Me", "Something To Talk About", "Luck Of The Draw", "Not The Only One", "Papa Come Quick", "Come To Me", "Tangled And Dark" and "All At Once." The music on here is infused with hope and caution, and musically its nearly flawless. This is a must have for any rock collector. 11 of 11 people found the following review helpful Just great music, By M. Berger "webjock" (Orlando, FL USA) - See all my reviews This review is from: Luck of the Draw (Audio CD) Unless you absolutely cringe to even the slightest twang of a slide guitar, you will love this CD. I used to hate country music but received this CD when I forgot to return my Columbia House card one month. I opened it thinking it was something else and was stuck with it, so I gave it a listen. At the time, I listened primarily to 1980's hair metal bands and Top 40 music, and I hadn't even heard Bonnie Raitt's name before. But after 2 spins of this CD, I was hooked.Bonnie's voice is powerful and rich. The songs are true to the heart and the soul. Need to relax? Listen to this. Need to feel better? Just listen. Want to feel sorry for yourself? Grab a beer and wallow in the Luck of the Draw. I recommend this disc for anyone with a heartbeat. It will beat a little healthier after making a connection wtih Bonnie Raitt. |
