Baby Mine - Bonnie Raitt with Was (Not Was)
IMPORTANT NEWS! For all of you in the Los Angeles area, there is a special event coming your way! Hal Wilner, producer of the STAY AWAKE Disney tribute album, is planning Stay Awake: The Official 20th Century Anniversary Concert. The live event will take place at UCLA’s Royce Hall on October 30th, 2008.
Wilner, who brought in a wide variety of musicians for the album, hopes to get as many of the same artists to take part in this event. Sounds like a good time! I wish I lived in California!
The concert features a mix of enchanting, moody and, at times, sardonic adaptations of tunes from The Jungle Book, Snow White, Dumbo, Alice in Wonderland, Pinocchio, and more.
Here is a track from the album. It's Baby Mine sung beautifully by nine-time Grammy award-winning blues artist BONNIE RAITT with backup vocals from WAS (NOT WAS)

Awesome. I'm jealous already since I know I won't be going. Hope there's accompanying CD release!
Wilmer is a genius; so is Don Was; Bonnie Raitt's voice may have been better before she started recording the blues in earnest, but she's always has a bittersweet soul, and this one was a great lyrical vehicle for it. This was the track off Stay Awake that I always remembered most sweetly, though once I put it on, I tended to re-place the needle most for the Sun Ra.
Great news on the concert -- wish I was on the other coast, too!
