Longing in Their Hearts, Bonnie Raitt's twelfth album, came out on Capitol in 1994 with Don Was producing, and it closed out the run that turned a long-admired roots singer into a multimillion seller. That breakthrough started with Nick of Time in 1989, which went to number one and won the Grammy for Album of the Year, and carried on through Luck of the Draw in 1991.
Was keeps the sound warm and uncluttered, leaving room for the blues, country and folk that have always run through her records to rub up against radio-ready rock, and Raitt sings it all with the unhurried ease of someone who no longer has anything to prove. "Love Sneakin' Up On You" gave her a mainstream hit, reaching 19 on the Billboard singles chart, and "You" got to 31 in the UK, still her only Top 40 hit there.
