Sweet Forgiveness

"Sweet Forgiveness" is the sixth album by Bonnie Raitt, released on the Warner Bros label in 1977. Since Home Plate brought Bonnie Raitt within shooting distance of the Top 40, thereby being the greatest chart success she yet attained, it made sense that she re-teamed with its producer Paul A. Rothchild for its follow-up, Sweet Forgiveness. Rothchild's modus operandi remains slickness, but he has backed away from his fondness for studio musicians, letting Raitt record the majority of the record with her touring band (who only were spotted occasionally throughout Homeplate). The album peaked at number 25 on The Billboard 200
