Music reviews of Give It Up

Music Review: Kicking a*s!
Rating: 5 Stars

People, this album costs SEVEN DOLLARS. It is probably Bonnie's best album. Take advantage of this opportunity.

It was the summer of 1973, and I was 21. I had never heard of Bonnie Raitt. I had been enveloped in Motown and Aretha Franklin (which is cool) for years. A girl I was working with on an archaelogical dig said "Get this record." I took her word for it and will always be indebted to her. I got this and the first one, Bonnie Raitt. I was instantly hooked, and it's not exaggerating to say that this changed my life. This changed my life. Both albums are terrifically underproduced, recorded live or next to it, real, amazing. I mean, one guy recorded naked. There was a dog. Her band and the music are prime.

Not only did this album teach me who Bonnie Raitt was, it started introducing me to those key blues folks who played with Bonnie and whom Bonnie played and toured with (including the wonderful Sippie Wallace, whom I was so lucky to see once with Bonnie), Jackson Browne, Chris Smither (I mean, PEOPLE), Joel Zoss (I instantly got his album), Barbara George, Eric Kaz and Libby Titus, some fine songwriters. I learned what bottleneck slide was, and what a virtuoso was.

Get it get it get it. Why this album costs $7 is beyond me, but SOMEONE'S missing the boat. You need to catch it.


Description of Give It Up

Her classic sophomore album from 1972 that influenced generations of women in rock. Features 'Love Me Like A Man', 'Under The Sky Falling' & 'Love Has No Pride'. Rhino/Warner Bros. digitally remastered.
This 1972 collection set the bar it took years for Raitt to clear again. Moving easily between sensitive singer-songwriter and bawdy blues-mama roles, the blazing redhead proved she was a talent to watch on several fronts. Raitt demonstrated a keen instinct for finding suitable material, adopting Jackson Browne's "Under the Falling Sky" and Eric Kaz's "Love Has No Pride" as if she'd penned them herself. The honeyed vocals and slashing slide guitar heard on Give It Up identified Raitt instantly to anyone who encountered this album. Unfortunately, it would be nearly two decades before many did catch on to her appeal. --Steve Stolder
