1989
Yes, for the most part, the eighties was a vast desolate wasteland for music. Hidden in there, though, were some gems. (As well as some youths who were learning ther chops so that they were ready to bust out in the 90s).
Here's an example of an artist who had some great work at both ends of that decade and is still going strong. Bonnie Raitt can rock. She can play soul and blues too. This particular album is, in my humble opinion, her best work from beginning to end. (She has other moments on other albums that might shine brighter, but no one album is as strong all the way through). This collection, Nick of Time, got her some long overdue attention from the mainstream after years of playing to a loyal but relatively small following.
Click on the cd cover picture and buy a copy if you don't already have it, or if you had a copy years ago and aren't sure where it is. Really, you can thank me later.
