Our Review

No two artists of the early '70s were better suited for one another than Bonnie Raitt and Little Feat, and Takin’ the Time was their opportunity to collaborate on a full-length record. Though the album features all members of Feat and was produced by group leader Lowell George, John Hall eventually assumed production duties after Raitt and George “got too close to be able to have any objectivity about it” (Raitt’s words). Little Feat’s playing lights up “I Gave My Love,” “I Feel the Same” and “I Thought I Was a Child,” but the entire album is elevated by an exceptional crop of Los Angeles studio musicians, including Jim Keltner, Taj Mahal, Earl Palmer, Milt Holland and Van Dyke Parks. As usual, Raitt shows her exemplary taste in source material. Witness her takes on Mose Allison’s “Everybody’s Cryin’ Mercy” and Randy Newman’s “Guilty,” in which she is able to tap into the essence of each songwriter while simultaneously making the song her own.

Customer Reviews

NO REVIEWS FOR THIS CLASSIC?!!!!! (5 stars)
One of the greatest singers and song interpreters of all time.

Takin' My Time (5 stars)
When I was in high school in the mid to late 70's, my friend's older sister turned me on to this. I listened to this album for years. It is just a classic! I'm excited to download it, as the album is worn out, no doubt! I, like the first reviewer, was shocked to see no other reviews. Take a listen!

Listening to it now (5 stars)
It's hard trying to convey the complexity of emotions this album stirs in me. Every note of "Cry Like a Rainstorm".......now: "I Feel the Same"...Okay, the whole album is sublime.

Long a critic's darling, singer/guitarist Bonnie Raitt did not begin to win the comparable commercial success due her until the release of the aptly titled 1989 blockbuster Nick of Time; her tenth album, it rocketed her into the mainstream consciousness nearly two decades after she first committed her unique blend of blues, rock, and R&B to vinyl. Born in Burbank, CA, on November 8, 1949, she was the daughter of Broadway star John Raitt, best known for his starring performances in such smashes...
