"What Is Success"-Bonnie Raitt

Ms. Raitt, thank you for asking this difficult and important question. Here's my idea of what success would be:

--becoming a respected and skilled young female blues guitarist in a field dominated by men
--having a voice that will not quit
--making fifteen studio albums
--winning nine Grammy Awards
--having a boatload/buttload of money
--making an artistic and commercial comeback after a period of failure
--beating the crap out of your alcoholism
--looking pretty damn good for 59 years old
--being inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame
--generally not sucking

Oh, you did all that? Yeah, I think you're all set.


what, what
