Bonnie Raitt - The Color of Roses - Non-Album Tracks (1997-1998)

This is the next Bonnie Raitt stray tracks album. As far as stray tracks albums for different musicians go, I feel that Raitt's are especially strong. Including this one.

Generally speaking, the kind of songs that have gone onto Raitt's stray tracks albums I've made are different from the kinds of songs that have gone onto her studio albums. For one thing, she tends to do more covers of classic, well-known songs (which is always a good thing). For another, she does a lot of collaborations. You can see that again for this album. All but two of the songs have her working with other major artists. But I've only included songs where she either does all of the singing or shares the lead vocals.

Five of the nine songs are officially unreleased. All of those come from concert bootlegs. For a couple of those, such as "Have You Ever Loved a Man" (a gender-switched version of the blues classic "Have You Ever Loved a Woman") and "Rock Me Baby," the sound is less than pristine, but is still pretty good.

The cover art photo is a publicity photo from 1998. It looks so much like an album cover that I'm worried it might be used already. If it's used on some existing album cover, please let me know and I'll change it.
