The McGlohon CD is (kinda) here!
Joe's
finished recording his first solo CD. It's twue!
And while you're waiting for the actual, real life CD to be pressed
and official, you can find
out more here.
As he puts it, "It's a combination of originals, some favorite
R& B stuff I've always wanted to cut, and some humor. I want
to document the various styles and genres of music I love to
play." Songs include Healin' Groove, Ode to
Billy Joe, and a version of Papa Was a Rolling Stone that
features guest vocals by T. Graham Brown, Delbert McClinton,
Steve Bassett, and Jimmy Hall. The CD was produced by Joe and
Steve Bassett, recorded at Miss Laura's Kitchen and Silvertone
Studios, and mixed and mastered by the illustrious James Pennebaker.
Stay tuned for more details!
