''Luck of the Draw'' is the eleventh album by Bonnie Raitt, released in 1991 (see 1991 in music). After being nominated for Grammy awards in four different categories for the album ''Nick of Time'', Raitt went for a creative retreat in Northern California to begin work on ''Luck of the Draw''. "I did it on purpose to see if I could come up with anything," Raitt said in 1991. "In case I won, I wanted to make sure that I had done some writing and didn't feel that ''Nick of Time'' was a fluke. I didn't want to win just 'cause I quit drinking and spent twenty years not making any money, you know? There wasn't enough. So I basically forced myself to go to songwriting boot camp. There were three of four days when it didn't happen — but because I didn't have alcohol or unhappiness or anything to get in the way, it started to open up and I started three of the four songs of mine that are on this album. And then it didn't matter if I won or not, because I had proved to myself that it was okay." The album surpassed ''Nick Of Times commercial success, having sold seven million copies in the United States alone by 2010, and was supported by a 180-date tour from 1991-1993. It replicated much of her U.S. success overseas as well, selling two million in France and Italy. It remains Raitt's biggest-selling recording to date. In the liner notes, Raitt dedicated this album to the late blues guitarist Stevie Ray Vaughan. ==Track listing== #"Something to Talk About" (Shirley Eikhard) – 3:47 #"Good Man, Good Woman" (Cecil Womack, Linda Womack) – 3:33 #"I Can't Make You Love Me" (Mike Reid, Allen Shamblin) – 5:33 #"Tangled and Dark" (Bonnie Raitt) – 4:52 #"Come to Me" (Bonnie Raitt) – 4:20 #"No Business" (John Hiatt) – 4:24 #"One Part Be My Lover" (Michael O'Keefe, Bonnie Raitt) – 5:06 #"Not the Only One" (Paul Brady) – 5:03 #"Papa Come Quick (Jody and Chico)" (Richard Hirsch, Chip Taylor, Billy Vera) – 2:43 #"Slow Ride" (Bonnie Hayes, Larry McNally, Andre Pessis) – 3:59 #"Luck of the Draw" (Paul Brady) – 5:17 #"All at Once" (Bonnie Raitt) – 5:03 "Good Man, Good Woman" is a Grammy Award-winning duet with Delbert McClinton and also appears on his album ''Never Been Rocked Enough'' 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Luck of the Draw (album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
