Bonnie Raitt and Taj Mahal

Soundcheck | May 3, 2010
Blues guitarists Bonnie Raitt and Taj Mahal have been friends since the late 1960s and worked together on Raitt's 1973 album, Takin' My Time. But they’ve led separate touring careers ever since -- until now. Today, the two musicians join us to talk about reuniting for 30-date summer tour and about their respective brands of rootsy blues.
