The Story Behind: Bonnie Raitt - Nick of Time, Ep 154

Musicians recount the strange and unexpected story behind the making of your favorite albums. Bonnie Raitt was at a low point in her career after being a road dog for decades and failing to breakthrough into mainstream success. With her reputation on the line she set her sights on a nostalgic record about middle age. The boyos discuss 80s synth overkill, selflessly helping old blues musicians, and burying your best tracks deep in the mix.
