Yesterday I attended Earth Fest at the Hatch Shell in Boston. I finally had a chance to see Bonnie Raitt live. What a performer! Jon Cleary, a singer/songwriter and piano player from New Orleans has been part of her touring band for the past year. He has a new album of his own: "Absolute Monster Gentlemen.". Alas, I can't find an MP3 on his website or his label's site. From what I heard yesterday, I'm sure the CD is fabulous. I've added it to my wishlist. He has a couple shows with his own band in New Orleans this week and then he's back on tour with Bonnie Raitt around the U.S.
