Blues/Rock/Pop star Bonnie Raitt is emerging from a 3 year studio layoff with a new record and tour. It's an opportune time to revisit her remarkable career and personal story. So award-winning producer Paul Ingles has added Bonnie Raitt to his "Emergence" series on important musicians of the last 50 years - which so far has included Bob Dylan, Paul Simon and Joni Mitchell.

The Emergence of Bonnie Raitt includes exclusive interview material with Bonnie as well as the voices of many Bonnie's colleagues including Jackson Browne, Taj Mahal, Beth Nielsen Chapman, Bill Payne, Maia Sharp, Freebo plus NPR Music critic Ann Powers.

The program samples music from throughout her career from her earliest recordings to her more recent work.

FOR PROGRAM DIRECTORS:  Available in two-hour format, either at 59 minutes each hour or 54 minutes each hour for stations running newscasts.  Also a one hour version is being offered for stations that absolutely can't clear the two hours either back to back or on consecutive weeks.  It's recommended that you try to go the two-hour route.  It will offer the kind of immersion that will be much more satisfying to listeners.  You've seen American Master's programs on PBS.  They are two hours for a reason.  That's the case with this program as well.  Note that the files for both the 59 minute hour-long version and the 54 minute hour-long version are offered under the tab "1 Hour Version."
