Bonnie Raitt

Manchester Apollo

7 April 2006

First night of her UK tour. Bonnie is in lively form and talks about her new "kick ass" amp, Tom Jones singing Love Letter and I can't make you love me, the League of Gentlemen and more. Sound isn't bad at all and I havn't touched the recording. At the start, there was a steward stood right next to me so I had to be discreet with mic positioning. At the end of the first song we moved along the empty seats in the row, so there is some noises with this repositiong. Sorry about that, but it doesn't last long. Set list is a nice balance between the old and the new IMHO and the show just flew by. There is a quiet transition between Tracks 10 and 11, so tracks 1 - 10 on disk one and the rest on disk two works nicely.
