答疑：ENIGMABACHMusician Bonnie Raitt is back after a long break from recording. Her new album, "Slipstream" comes seven years after her last release. But, her voice and guitar sound as sure as ever.
Shirley Griffith plays some of the new music and brings us up to date about the performer.
Bonnie Raitt's recording career began in 1971 with her album, "Bonnie Raitt." She was just 22 years old. Critics immediately recognized her great singing skills and guitar work. She was good at blues, rock, and country.
40 years later, Bonnie Raitt still sounds pure and fresh. And she can give old songs new life like no one else. "Slipstream" includes a version of a song by Gerry Rafferty from 1978. Raitt adds a reggae beat to "Right Down the Line," for a thoroughly modern sound.
Two Bob Dylan songs can also be found on "Slipstream." One is the bluesy "Million Miles." The other is this heartbreaking love song, "Standing in the Doorway."
"Slipstream" is the first release on Bonnie Raitt's own label, Redwing Records. She told the New York Times that it was best to record on her own terms. "I like to have my freedom," she said. She shares production credit with her friend, producer and songwriter, Joe Henry.
Bonnie Raitt is well known for her slide guitar work.经过一段长期休整，歌手邦尼·瑞特推出一张全新的专辑《Slipstream》，这是她七年来的首张专辑。不过，她的声音和吉他演奏如以往一样动听。
其中几首新歌由雪莉·格瑞夫斯(Shirley Griffith)演奏，为我们呈现了一个崭新的邦尼·瑞特。
邦尼·瑞特的歌手生涯始于1971年的专辑《邦尼·瑞特》，她那时只有22岁。评论家当即就发现她的演唱技巧和吉他演奏都十分出色。她擅长蓝调音乐、摇滚乐和乡村音乐。
四十年后的今天，邦尼·瑞特的歌声依然清新纯净。没有人能像她一样可以赋予老歌以新的活力。《Slipstream》中收录了一首1978年由杰瑞·拉斐尔蒂（Gerry Rafferty）演唱的歌。瑞特在《Right Down the Line》这首歌曲中融入雷鬼乐（一种牙买加流行音乐）的节奏，使歌曲整体听上去充满时尚感。
在这张新专辑中，瑞特翻唱了鲍勃·迪伦（Bob Dylan）的两首歌曲，一首是布鲁斯歌曲《Million Miles》，另一首是伤感的爱情歌曲《Standing in the Doorway》。
《Slipstream》是首次使用她本人的Redwing Records厂牌推出的第一张个人专辑。她在接受纽约时报采访时说，她对这张专辑有着自己的诠释，这是再好不过的了。“我喜欢自由自在，不受束缚。”制作费用由她和朋友兼制作人，作曲家乔·亨瑞（Joe Henry）共同分摊。
邦尼·瑞特的滑奏吉他的演奏非常有名。
