Rodney Crowell: The Chicago Sessions (LP)

(New West Records) 10 tracks, gatefold cover.

Take one look at the cover of Rodney Crowell's brilliant new album, "The Chicago Sessions," and you might spot a familiar reference to the legendary songwriter's 1978 debut. "In many ways, this album feels to me like the very first record," Crowell reflects. "When my daughter Chelsea suggested that the artwork be similar, the connection made perfect sense. There's something very simple, very innocent about it. It's just me and the band together in a room, loose and live and having fun."

"The Chicago Sessions" was produced by Jeff Tweedy of Wilco and is indeed a throwback to Crowell's early record-making days, but it's no nostalgia trip. The songs here are vibrant and current, touching on everything from love and mortality to race and religion, and the performances are nothing short of exhilarating, driven by raw guitars, honky-tonk piano and crisp, punchy drums.

Tweedy has an easy touch as a producer, his influence subtle but unmistakable, and engineer Tom Schick's mixes are dynamic and lively, alternately lush and spacious in all the right places, with Crowell's warm, weather-beaten vocals always taking center stage. Put it all together and you get a masterful, cross-generational collaboration that feels at once fresh and familiar, a concise, engaging work that balances careful craft with joyful release at every turn.

"Rodney Crowell"

geb. 7. 8. 1950 in Houston - Texas Record Labels: Warner Brothers, Columbia Erster Hit: Elvira (1978) Rodney Crowell, ein Sänger, Gitarrist, Schlagzeuger und Komponist mit einer gleich starken Neigung zur Rock- und Country-Music, kam Anfang der 70er Jahre nach Nashville, wo Jerry Reed auf ihn aufmerksam wurde und ein paar seiner Kompositionen auf Schallplatten einspielte. Wenig später wurde der Produzent Brian Ahern mit Rodney Crowell bekannt und stellte ihn Emmylou Harris vor. Und auf vielen Harris-L.P.s fand man von nun an Songs aus der Feder von Rodney Crowell, darunter ,Amarillo,'Till I Gain Control Again,You're Supposed To Be Feeling Good, Tulsa Queen und viele andere. Auch die Oak Ridge Boys waren mit Rodney Crowell`s Material erfolgreich, zum Beispiel mit ,Leaving Louisiana In The Broad Daylight. Crowell wurde als Gitarrist Mitglied von Emmylou Harris von 1975 bis 1977. Dann verfolgte er seine eigene Karriere als Sänger. Doch außer einer Handvoll L.P.s und ein paar kleiner Hits, ist bislang wenig daraus geworden. Als Produzent der L.P.s seines Freundes Guy Clark und seiner Ehefrau Rosanne Cash ist Rodney Crowell dagegen umso erfolgreicher. Vielleicht sollte er tatsächlich seine Stärken erkennen und sich ganz auf das Komponieren und Produzieren konzentrieren.
