Happy 70th birthday to Bonnie Raitt (born 11//49), who continues to record and tour and reflect her lifelong devotion and affection for Blues and R & B. With renowned bluesy vocals and versatile and skilled guitar chops, Raitt remains in the upper echelon of singer-songwriter/guitar slingers along Eric Clapton, Steve Winwood and others. Somehow she still retains her trademark red hair and silver-white streak -not bad for this newly septuagenarian. Check Raitt performing on Soundstage PBS in 1974
