Sad to learn of John McLellan's passing. A real creative spirit behind the drums who framed silence and sound unlike any other musician. I remember first meeting John while I was living in Boston and caught him from time to time around NYC.

THIS album.

Emmylou Harris “Wrecking Ball”

I first heard Emmylou Harris’ “Wrecking Ball” in 1999 while living in Somerville, Massachusetts. I’d been playing with singer-songwriters and was checking out a lot of bluegrass and country music. I think Ed Jurdi (from Band of Heathens) introduced me to the album. I knew Daniel Lanois produced it and as a Canadian living in the United States I followed his work with a sense of patriotism (I only recently learned that he was born in Hull, Québec just across the river from Ottawa where I grew up). This album is connected to my last album post (Robbie Robertson’s “Storyville”) with guest appearances by musicians also associated with New Orleans including Cyrille Neville and Brian Blade. U2’s drummer, Larry Mullen Jr., also plays beautifully and really sets the feel on the only album I’ve heard him on apart from his “working band”.

Here’s an interview with Daniel Lanois: http://www.magnetmagazine.com/2005/09/19/daniel-lanois-the-mercy-seat/

Album Rediscovery of the Day: Robbie Robertson “Storyville”

Watching a documentary on the relationship between Bob Dylan and The Band (“Down in the Flood”) led me back to this album. I first remember seeing it on cassette in my father’s collection and hearing “Night Parade” on the radio in the early 90s. The warmth of the music and the clarity of the tracks hit me first. Beautiful contributions from a who’s who of New Orleans, studio, and simply legendary musicians including Ziggy Modeliste, Jerry Marotta, Alex Acuña, Neil Young, Ndugu Chancler, Aaron and Ivan Neville, Glen Andrews (Trombone Shorty), and Kermit Ruffins to name a few. Great songs about one of my favorite cities on earth.
