Daily News | Review: Bonnie Raitt reconnects with her Philly fan base at the Mann
The Bonnie Raitt and Lucinda Williams double bill at the Mann Center Wednesday spotlighted two women making music steeped in the blues who continue to create at a high level decades into careers of remarkable duration.Just Like That…
For an artist with such a formidable catalog, Raitt put plenty of focus on her fine new material, playing fully half of the rock-solid and worldly wiseMuch of that was moving, including “Livin’ For The Ones,” a “Jumpin’ Jack Flash”-ish rocker written with George Marinelli, who, along with Duke Levine, is one of the band’s two sterling lead guitarists. That is, beside Raitt, who played precise, stinging, casually masterful slide guitar all night long.
Williams’ opening hour-long set was her first area performance since the 69-year-old masterful storytelling songwriter suffered a stroke in November of 2020. A roadie walked her out on stage - and walked her off, after she closed with a blistering “Joy.” She did not play guitar at all. Williams songs play like a travelogue of heartache, rambling around the American South. On Wednesday, she took the audience along to New Orleans in the swaying “Crescent City” .
A note about mobile phone policy during Raitt’s set. Photography was not permitted, and that warning was noted for the of people who held paper tickets. You could also learn it by scrolling all the way down on the concert’s page on the Mann web site and clicking on “More info.”
