Editorial Review: Album Description: Her classic sophomore album from 1972 that influenced generations of women in rock. Features 'Love Me Like A Man', 'Under The Sky Falling' & 'Love Has No Pride'. Rhino/Warner Bros. digitally remastered. Amazon.com essential recording: This 1972 collection set the bar it took years for Raitt to clear again. Moving easily between sensitive singer-songwriter and bawdy blues-mama roles, the blazing redhead proved she was a talent to watch on several fronts. Raitt demonstrated a keen instinct for finding suitable material, adopting Jackson Browne's "Under the Falling Sky" and Eric Kaz's "Love Has No Pride" as if she'd penned them herself. The honeyed vocals and slashing slide guitar heard on Give It Up identified Raitt instantly to anyone who encountered this album. Unfortunately, it would be nearly two decades before many did catch on to her appeal. --Steve Stolder Customer Reviews
Average Rating:
 Rating: - The Best BonnieI have been a Bonnie Raitt fan for 35+ years. I have every album, cd and DVD. I've seen her in concert 10+ times. If you have to own only one of her albums this is it. Great, spontaneous music. Listen to "Give It Up" on a really good audio system. It is dense, lively. "Love Has No Pride" is a classic. The whole thing stands the test of time. Rating: - Bonnie Fan Since 70sI can't even imagine my single life in the 70s & 80s without Bonnie and these songs, oh my gosh how I adore this woman. We used to always see her at Wolf Trap (in VA) along with John Prine, wow, I feel so lucky to have been there at the right time. There's no one more soulful, she can belt em out and also just KILL your heart with tenderness... she's just so so so so COOL, and I always have to sing along to her songs at the top of my lungs even as my teenagers run screaming from the room (not from Bonnie, from me)...this is such a dumb review, I just don't have words enough to describe Bonnie Raitt. I can tell you that at one of her concerts at Wolf Trap, probably early 80's, I broke my foot falling drunkenly down the stairs and stayed ... Read More: Rating: - Don't EVER Give This One Up...What a classic album. So many great songs and in very diverse styles. I don't think you'll find one filler on this one - easily her best album. It has beautiful ballads, rockin' blues, a touch of Dixieland jazz, little bit of everything. We used to wear the grooves out of this one back in our college days back in the early-mid 70's. And the one thing you absolutely had to love about Bonnie, she pulled no punches. A real gutsy gal and solid musician. Top shelf. Dennis A Rating: - love it!It is refreshing to read reviews from fans who were actually there when this CD was first released (as an album, ofcourse) back in '72, because listening to it today, one can also feel the same adoration for Bonnie. My stance is that, if you truly call yourself a music lover, then this CD is a must. It is gorgeous to listen to from the first song to the last. The musicians are in mint condition, and I must I agree with a reviewer who stated that this CD gives you the feeling of a casual studio session with everyone very relax and just there to make beautiful music. It is mainly Blues tinge but you will notice some New Orleans style dixieland blues in "Give it Up or Let Me Go" and "You Got to Know How." It makes you think that Bonnie is from ... Read More: Rating: - This is it, folks.Bonnie at her best, before she tried disco and pop. No white chick could touch Bonnie in those days for true soul. I had all her albums - this one was never topped. And if you don't stop whatever you're doing and get all misty-eyed at "Stayed Too Long At The Fair," your heart ain't beatin'. I saw her a few months after this album came out, at the Cellar Door in D.C., on stage with only Freebo the bass player (John Prine was the opening act). Fantastic night - those were the days. |
