Streetlights [Original recording remastered]

Amazon.com
Following her first three albums, all of which were wildly eclectic affairs, Bonnie Raitt was poised for a mainstream move, and 1974's Streetlights is it. There's no blues edge here whatsoever, and Raitt's guitar playing is subdued--both detractions--but the album also introduces "Angel from Montgomery," the definitive version of John Prine's piercing ballad. Raitt dips further into contemporary singer-songwriter fare with Joni Mitchell's "That Song About the Midway" and James Taylor's "Rainy Day Man," but the album peaks with Allen Toussaint's thoughtful (and funky) "What Is Success." --Daniel Durchholz

A classic.......2007-03-29

I grew up listening to Bonnie Raitt, James Taylor, Joni Mitchell and the like. Listening to this particular album brings back nice memories. It's great to go back to a different time:-) This album is a true classic; hadn't heard it in years and decided to buy it again, this time on CD. "Got you on my mind" is my favorite track on this cd.

One of her best!.......2007-02-27

I have to agree with the reviewer that asks "how can anyone rate this less than 5 stars". I bought this album back in the early seventies when it first came out and never got tired of hearing it. From the first cut, "That Song About the Midway" I knew it was something special. The remake of John Prine's "Angel from Montgomery" is better than the original, and the old Howard Tate tune "ain't nobody home" is on the money. "Everything that touches you" is as soulfull as any of her previous works, and that's saying alot! This is one of those records that the more you play it the more you'll like it. Buy it and find out for yourself...You won't regret it.

Great classic Bonnie.......2007-02-16

My favorite Bonnie Raitt offerings are pretty much "Nick of Time" and before. This one is classic Bonnie and has my favorite version of "Angel From Montgomery" and is worth the price of purchase by itself, in my opinion.

Fabulous Bonnie.......2003-07-15

In the 70's, the album "Streetlights" was my introduction to Bonnie Raitt. At the time I was living in Minneapolis. I was browsing in a record store and this album just happened to be playing. I was actually looking for another album, but the music really caught my ear, so I asked the clerk who the singer was. He showed me the album and I purchased this album on the spot! I have been a fan of Bonnie Raitt ever since. Since I also sing, I could appreciate a great performance. All the numbers are great, but if I were forced to select my favorites, it would be "Angel From Montgomery" and "Rainy Day Man". Bonnie cannot be categorized into a particular genre. She appeals to a cross section of fans! If you haven't heard this album/cd, it will be a real treat! Right on Bonnie! Keep us humming, singing along and dancing!

The best!.......2003-01-18

This album always makes me feel good and that is really all I ask. This is my favorite album of all time.

THISisMODERN.net Review.......2006-02-12

Just what we need, another funky acoustic pop rock singer/songwriter, right? Yup! And this one's from Canada. He's not here to help saturate the market, though. He's here to make a statement. And, Matt York does just that with his debut full length album 'Under The Streetlights'. Headed off right at the top with 'That's Life' the album starts off with a bang. This song combines clever penmanship with all the rest of the right ingredients for a perfect pop track, hitting the listener with a sense of greatness which they hope will follow in the later tracks. Well, no need to worry, because the greatness doesn't end after the first song. York goes on to give us many standout tracks including 'Footsteps' and 'Underwater'. He can even slow it down and sing the classic love song while not being too cookie cutter. Does Matt deserve a chance with the listeners? Of course he does... he's not your average singer/songwriter. This debut proves that Matt York is not a no-hit or one-hit wonder, or just another disposable pop star. York displays a range of musical talents and a soulful voice that is timeless, and has the staying power to be successful for years to come. On 'Streetlights', York serves up a filling dose of musical energy that is, by far, some of of the best independent music around.
