NILS LOFGREN RELEASES A 16-TRACK COLLECTION, WEATHERED , WHICH WAS RECORDED ON THE ROAD IN 2019.

There’s a good reason why Nils Lofgren has been a key member of groups like the E Street Band, Ringo Starr & His All-Starr Band and Crazy Horse. Simply put, he’s that good! Now a new live record arrives that perhaps more than any other of his releases puts a spotlight on his extraordinary guitar playing, his tones and technique. The 16-track collection, entitled Weathered, was recorded on the road last year between his work with the E Street Band and Crazy Horse. This was his first tour with a full band in over 15 years, and he was joined by some world-class talent: Andy Newmark on drums (John Lennon, Sly Stone, David Bowie, Eric Clapton), Kevin McCormick on bass, vocals (Crosby, Stills and Nash, Jackson Browne, Melissa Etheridge, Keb’ Mo’) and the real show stopper, Cindy Mizelle on vocals (Luther Vandross, Whitney Houston, Steely Dan, Bruce Springsteen). His brother Tom (who’s been playing with Nils since his early band Grin) rounds things off.

Among the many singles fans will welcome from his solo records, the album also contains tracks from his recent Lou Reed tribute Blue With Lou and great covers like the Hank Williams’ classic “Mind Your Own Business” — not to mention an all-out funky guitar jam take of The Temptations staple “Papa Was a Rollin’ Stone.” Lofgren and the band put on a real clinic pushing and pulling the song forward, playing with its construct in ways that allows each instrument to shine again and again.
