"I've
been a fan of Teresa's voice and writing for a long time. Her legions of fans, including me,
are so glad to finally have both on this CD."
...
Bonnie Raitt
We have been wanting to capture our live show for a long time and it's exciting to finally have recordings that really reflect what we sound like live. These tracks were recorded at 4 different shows at Bogie's in Westlake Village (thank you, Ken) and because of everybody's tour schedules, we have 4 different versions of the Rhythm Tramps - all players that have brought a lot to this band over the years. I am so incredibly lucky to be able to make music with every one of these guys and to be able to have all of these players together on this record is just amazing! Check out this line-up - all of my favorites!...
bass: Terry Wilson
guitar: Billy Watts
drums: Herman Matthews, Jay Bellarose, Tony Braunagel
horns: Lee Thornburg, Darrell Leonard, Joe Sublett, Paulie Cerra, Ron Dziubla
And not only do we have these amazing players on this record, but we managed to get our favorite engineers to help out - each mixing several of the cuts: the incredible and lovely Ed Cherney; the great George Landress; the wonderful, John Porter - who mixed several of the songs as well as mastering the CD - and, of course, my personal favorite, Terry Wilson... How could this record not sound great? 'Live' records are always a little different to handle because all the instruments tend to bleed into all the microphones. There is not always a lot you can do to adjust the sounds separately and there is really not much you can 'fix'. What you hear on this CD is exactly what was played in performance. I am really proud of this and thankful for how it came out. Hope you enjoy it!
