Bonnie Raitt Instagram – April 7th marks the 25th anniversary of the release of Bonnie’s album Fundamental. Released in 1998 on @capitolrecords, this was the first album Bonnie co-produced with the team of Mitchell Froom and Tchad Blake (after much success with producer @donwas and engineer @echerney on the previous four albums.)

The album features two originals written by Bonnie as well as three co-writes with several simpatico collaborators including “One Belief Away” inspired by @drmtukudzi , a hugely influential and revered songwriter and musician from Zimbabwe. Oliver passed away in 2019 at the age of 66, leaving a tremendous musical, cultural as well has humanitarian legacy with his Pakare Paye Arts Center which encourages students from around Zimbabwe to pursue the arts as a career path. In Oliver’s honor and for the 25th anniversary of the release of Fundamental, please enjoy the music video for “One Belief Away,” written by Bonnie Raitt, Paul Brady and Dillon O’Brien (with inspiration from the music of Oliver Mtukudzi.) https://youtu.be/Wfz4tlzMsHk
