Early Sunday morning. I’m in the midst of a work frenzy the last few days in the studio but I’m trying to start the day a little slower. I think I’ll take the rest of day off from the blog and listen to a little music this morning, probably something from Levon Helm who passed away a few days ago, most likely Electric Dirt, which was Helm’s last studio album. I love the cover. Here’s Levon singing the gospel-tinged When I Go Away.
Like the song says: No more troubles…
Good travelling for you, Levon.
Thanks for a great song for a Sunday (or any) morning. I did a little Googling about this heretofore unknown (to me) album and found a couple of reviews, made all the more poignant by Helm’s death. The first in in the British magazine, Uncut; the second, a brief one from The New Yorker, ends with this observation: “When he was young, he sounded like a wise old man. Now he sounds like an oracle.”
Thanks for the links, Al. Love that last line.
