"Thirty-three years after Nick of Time, which yielded perhaps the most career-changing Grammy coronation in history, and six years since her last studio album, Dig in Deep, Raitt returns with Just Like That..., a self-produced effort boasting most of her strengths: a fidelity to the material that borders on the idolatrous, a penchant for leading mostly male pros through unfamiliar paces, and the exquisite precision of her guitar" — Alfred Soto, Pitchfork. Read Soto's entire review here.

With Just Like That... , Bonnie Raitt's first new album in more than six years, the Rock and Roll Hall of Famer continues to draw on the range of influences that have shaped her legendary career, while creating something that speaks to the circumstances and challenges of these unprecedented times.

The mix of sounds and approaches on Just Like That... reveals how, 50 years after the release of her debut album, Bonnie Raitt continues to personify what it means to stay creative, adventurous, and daring over the course of a life's work.

"On this record, I wanted to stretch," she says. "I always want to find songs that excite me, and what's different this time is that I've tried some styles and topics I haven't touched on before."

Twenty-one albums in, Bonnie Raitt has never felt more grateful that she can continue making music, contributing to causes, keeping her crew working, and connecting with her audience. "I'm really aware of how lucky I am," Raitt says, "I feel like my responsibility is to get out there and say something fresh and new-for me and for the fans."

Still amazing after all thes years posted on 05/22/2022 5 Stars An excellent album musically. It continues to surprise me that after all these years Bonnie Raitt is still writing superb music at such a consistent level. Only a few others can do this, the most notable others being Bruce Springsteen and Lucinda Williams, The recording and pressing are excellent as well with just a little surface noise. It would have been nice had it been a 45rpm pressing like the prior record though.

Made me cry. posted on 04/27/2022 5 Stars Firstly, a great album. But some songs were so sad and well written, I had to listen to “ Down the Hall” and “”Just Like That” on vinyl after a YouTube video audition. Get this record.
