Additional Recovery Information

For nearly forty years Loudon Wainwright III has been one of America's most cherished music icons. His legendary wit and satirical genius have expanded his cultural reach from troubadour to silver screen regular. With his new album ''Recovery'' he reaches back into the past and profoundly reclaims many of his most classic songs. Produced by Joe Henry, the project came about while the two were digging through some of Loudon's older albums. After listening, Loudon and Joe saw that the quality and breadth of the tunes were undiminished and decided to rework the songs with a team of studio heavyweights to add color to the previously spare material. On ''Recovery,'' classics like ''School Days,'' ''The Man Who Couldn't Cry'' and ''Motel Blues'' are fully flowered by veterans Greg Leisz, Patrick Warren, David Piltch and Jay Bellerose. A rare document of the changes nearly four decades can bring, ''Recovery'' reinterprets songs Loudon first composed and performed in his early twenties. The album follows Loudon's last release, ''Strange Weirdos: Music from and Inspired by the Film Knocked Up'' into one of the most unique catalogs in American music history.

 

What Customers Say About Recovery:

And you can check out [.]. Loudon Wainright performs some good and fun folk music. I also recommend his album "Career Moves", which is a hilarious live recording.

I probably should have selected another cd of his. I love Loudon Wainright's new music, but was unfamiliar with most of the songs on this CD.

His sperm is also superior as evidenced with son Rufus and daughter Martha. LWIII is a real treasure. Seen him many times since 1976 and he gets better with age.

A new fan can appreciate both the great young talent who created these tunes, and the mature musician who is revisiting them from a very different perspective. The songs on the CD Recovery are new recordings of classic Wainwright tunes from about 30 years ago. If you ever have the opportunity to see Wainwright in concert, don't miss it. The label "entertainer" is perfect for this eminently talented and insightful singer-songwriter. Even if you know them all in their original forms, these versions are a great pleasure to listen to. Longtime fans will enjoy the solid reworking of these classics.

Yes it is well produced by Mr. However, I prefer the original, and raw sound of a younger LWIII.

I love the "full" band sound, and would pay top dollar to see these guys live in a small room. That was fantastic, this is beautiful.

In the measure of full discloser I am an avid fan of LWIII, and immediately obtain anything he put's out. Certainly LWIII deserves to revisit his work and reinterpret it any way he chooses, and here, it is wonderful.

LWIII can do no wrong. That being said, this is a fine album.

Henry, and the band is first rate.
