Bonnie Raitt has been going flat out since the release last spring of her 16th studio album “Slipstream.” After some 70 concerts in support of the album, last week she stopped by the New York office of the Wall Street Journal to take stock.

“Slipstream,” her first release on her own independent record label, Redwing, has sold nearly 300,000 copies and critics praised the material, which included interpretations of songs by Bob Dylan (“Million Miles,” “Standing in the Doorway”) and Gerry Rafferty (“Right Down the Line”).

Hours after the interview, she received a Grammy nomination in the category of best Americana album.
