A great video on an artist you may not be aware of. Participants include Elvis Costello.


 

Whether you know of Jim Lauderdale or not, you will be very glad you watched this. You gotta trust me on this! 😉

Yeah @mashif, I probably should have moved to Nashville at some point. I know a few guys who relocated to Austin from California, and are glad they did. I'm too old now. 😉

 

 

Thanks for the link Mark, I'm definitely gonna subscribe and watch the series. Congratulations on a job well done!

I've been involved musically with some unique artists (Emitt Rhodes, Evan Johns, Pearl Harbour), and few people know the price they paid to follow their muse.

 

 

@markmoskow: I LOVE Larry Campbell! I saw him live when he was serving as Dylan’s guitarist, harmony singer, and band leader. After that he went to work for Levon Helm, both in recordings and the live shows in Levon’s Woodstock barn. He figures prominently in the Levon Helm documentary Ain’t In It For My Health (the title a quote from Levon in response to Robbie Robertson’s statement that the Rock ’n’ Roll life is not a healthy one. What a wuss. 😊 )

Larry and his wife/partner Teresa Williams have made three excellent albums, the latest (entitled All This Time) released just a month ago. Great songs, singing, and musicianship.

 

 

And Iris DeMent. She’s coming back to town in a coupla months, get to see & hear her live again.

Iris was John Prine’s favorite collaborator.
