And it's supposed to be a solo effort. The song list is as follows: Try Me One More Time Kind Hearted Woman Big Road It Takes a Lot to Laugh, It Takes a Train to Cry Buck Dancer's Choice I Belong to the Band Moonshiner Shake Sugaree Hey Bub Love Changing Blues When First Unto This Country Levee Camp Moan Trying to Get Home East Virginia Windin' Boy Lonesome Roving Wolves I was able to see him twice back when he was touring in the 70's but he always had a band with him. I'll be looking forward to this solo recording. And I'm glad to see that a musician of his quality is getting out there again. Let's hope it's not another 17 years before he releases another one. |

I saw the David Bromberg Band twice at Cambridge (donkey's years ago, when you could still pick up tickets on the door - or should that be gate?). I remember him as an outstanding performer with an exceptionally good band. I then bought his LP "How Late'll You Play Till", which covered a tremendous range of what we'd now call Americana. It was all there: great musicianship, soul, sensitivity, edge, great arrangements and a wicked sense of humour. Has that been released on CD? If so, please let me know. It's good to hear the old bugger's still going! |

He continues to make exquiste violins at a shop in Delaware. He returned to the stage a few years ago, often performing with his wife as the guitarist for the Angel Band, and this new CD is his first solo effort. The CD is amazing. It is a folk CD and Bromberg has fun with it. As he says, he is not "showing off" on this recording, just having great fun with the songs. |
