There's no mistaking the sound of Bonnie Raitt on her sixteenth album. But there's also no missing the fact that this disc expands on that classic sound with some surprising new twists.

Some thirty years after her recording debut, Bonnie's performance on Silver Lining is rock-solid. There's nothing trendy in the energies that define this album, where her broadening search for universal elements in diverse musical cultures runs parallel to her deepening mastery of the blues. With her road band laying the groundwork and with production responsibilities reverted primarily to her own hands, Raitt delivers varied and vivid performances throughout Silver Lining. Jon Cleary, an addition to the lineup, plays the pivotal role; his piano drives the steaming New Orleans groove on "Fool's Game," the posturing street funk of "Monkey Business," and the dusty blues tread on the acoustic-textured "No Gettin' Over You." The material, culled from American and African songwriters, along with a few Raitt originals.
