This weeks Mulligan Stew has two themes.
One is Wicked Grin. That’s a John Hammond album that came out in 2001.
It was produced by his friend Tom Waits. 11 of the 12 songs were written by tom.
Through the creative process, they became blues standards.
Now in 2017, Steve Dawson has again organized an all-star showcase, this time to honor the music of Tom Waits.
In studio with me at Live From RailTown are Jim Byrnes, David Hidalgo from Los Lobos, Jill Barber and the great John Hammond.
Talking and playing. Sharing stories and memories.
The other theme is trains. One of musics most used words/metaphors.
Springsteen, The Band, James Brown, Curtis Mayfield and The Impressions and many more.
Playlist below.
All Aboard !!
