Mulligan Stew April 17, 2021 – in the middle of a pandemic.
The very special guest on this week’s Stew is Greg Keelor!!
Co-Founder, co-Singer, co-Writer of one of Canada’s premier bands Blue Rodeo. Share the Love is his 6th solo album.
When asked did he know how many he has done and what the names are the answer was No.
And that was the first question. I had another 45 minutes of questions. Now what?
Greg spun his first story about he and Jimmy Bowskill sitting around, in a hash haze throwing lines and guitar licks back and forth and all of a sudden there’s an album taking shape.
They recorded it and went to a small community center at a lake to play the songs again while video cameras shot the songs for promo.
THAT recording was so good, they scrapped the studio record and went with the community hall by the lake session.
That was Greg’s answer to the second question…and we were off and running.
We cover a lot of ground with Greg Keelor..ups and downs. Losses both human and personal.
The album is very good. His best work yet. We both agreed that the feel of the record was much like the late ’60s in LA with Buffalo Springfield and The Byrds.
He’s a good man that Greg Keelor.
And hello Jimmy Bowskill!
