Podcast appearances and mentions of Larry Campbell

Pioneering Southern rock troubadours Little Feat have announced the May 9 release of their forthcoming studio LP, Strike Up The Band. As a preview of the set, the band has shared their initial single, "Too High To Cut My Hair," and the official music video, featuring the theatrics of Lily Winwood playing the role of stoned hairdresser to each member of the band that visits her."Too High To Cut My Hair," presents the ensemble's funk capability with the siphoned blues-fueled cadence of Sam Clayton's classic low C to create a roaring introduction to the band's latest project. The track was written by longtime member, Fred Tackett, who had a large part in crafting lines and lyrics across the album. "Fred Tackett shines all over this record, as he always does, but in particular in his writing," bandleader Bill Payne reaffirmed. Payne explains the backstory behind the single via press release: "'Too High To Cut My Hair' is based on a true story where [Tackett] and his wife Patricia were in a hotel room in New Orleans. Fred had asked for a trim, but decided that she was too high to cut his hair. And then he thought, 'oh my god, what a title!'"He continues, "People love the humor in our records, a cherished entree to those when they find it. So I'm happy this song displays that humor, and in full. It's also got the classic Sam Clayton doing his, three octaves below middle C voice in there - Too High To Cut My Hair! Everyone that has heard it has said, 'That's a Little Feat song,' and I know what they mean!"Little Feat sprinkles the collective wisdom of a 56-year-old band across the 13-track record, granting listeners access to their collective prowess and sonic dexterity on songs like "Bluegrass Pines (Ft. Molly Tuttle, Larry Campbell & Teresa Williams), ""4 Days Of Heaven, 3 Days Of Work," "Shipwrecks" and "Midnight Flight." "'Strike Up The Band' really began in the winter of 2019 when I was subbing for Paul Barrere, and he passed away on the day of that first show," says Scott Sharrard, "Continuing through the pandemic shut down (and a lot of practicing and songwriting during that time), to our return to the road in 2021. Then on to our recording field trip to Memphis that resulted in the Grammy Nominated blues album of classic blues covers 'Sam's Place.' That one gave us all the chance to tighten up as a band and re-visit the Rosetta Stone of rock and roll, the blues. We have paid a lot of dues to get here, and all roads have led us to this new album." "When discussing the album with the band and where it sits in our canon," Payne adds. "Our predecessor to this record in my mind was 'Let It Roll.' We are in a similar position to introduce Little Feat once again with this new collection of songs. It is my feeling that, from what we had been playing over the last few years, there's no question the overwhelming majority of fans would accept the album for what it is: an unmistakable iteration of Little Feat that highlights, with great songs and musicianship, the very best of an ongoing legacy, expressly evoking and expanding upon what people think of when they hear Little Feat."Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

Singer and guitarist Teresa Williams joins Carmel Holt to talk about her new album with husband and musical partner, guitarist/songwriter/producer Larry Campbell, All This Time. Teresa shares her journey from growing up in the deep South where "things don't change much", to chasing her dreams of being an actress and singer in New York City, meeting her future husband, Larry Campbell, and after years of being apart while Larry was touring with Bob Dylan, finally getting to join forces in Levon Helm's band. Now with four albums together as Larry Campbell & Teresa Williams, Teresa reflects how music was what brought them together, and has remained the glue that has kept their love alive for nearly four decades.

Episode 287: Cris Jacobs has been tagged the “King of Baltimore rock and roll” by a leading local publication, but a quick look at his catalog and certainly his newest album suggests that and more. He made his name as a guitarist, songwriter and singer with The Bridge, a soulful jam band that toured the nation and overseas between 2000 and 2010. His solo projects have been well regarded, but he's not been a force in Americana until recently. After a bit of a mid-life crisis, he turned to his first love - bluegrass - and pulled together a wonderful album called One Of These Days, with the Infamous Stringdusters as his band and Jerry Douglas as his producer. It landed Cris a debut on the Grand Ole Opry. How did he get here? We find out. Also in the hour, some of my recent catch-up with roots power couple Larry Campbell and Teresa Williams. 

TOMMY EMMANUEL is arguably one of the best and most influential guitarists in the world. From Australia, across America and around the globe, Tommy is packing major concert halls to the rafters with his amazing and brilliant guitar skills. LARRY CAMBPELL & TERESA WILLIAMS are a husband and wife music powerhouse. Larry Campbell is perhaps best known for his time as part of Bob Dylan's band. Teresa Williams is an accomplished musician who has worked with artists such as Julie Miller, Levon Helm, Peter Wolf, and Hot Tuna.

Larry Campbell and Teresa Williams have released 4 albums as a duo, and were members of Levon Helm's band for over a decade, but the married couple also have a long musical history prior to becoming a formal duo. In addition to producing Levon's later career Grammy-winning records, Larry has played with Bob Dylan, Paul Simon, Elvis Costello, Emmylou Harris, Judy Collins, Willie Nelson, Shania Twain, and Tracy Chapman, to name a few. We have a great conversation about being in it for the joy of getting to make music, balancing being members of large-scale tours (including a great story of them on the road with Jackson Browne), prioritizing self care vs being a workaholic, and the Tao of Levon.Get more access and support this show by subscribing to our Patreon, right here.Links:Larry Campbell & Teresa WilliamsFelix McTeigueRoger FriedmanTony LeoneBob DylanJackson BrowneFurther"Ain't In It For My Health" docNonesuch RecordsSinead O'Connor/Shane McGowan TributeHardly Strictly Bluegrass FestivalClick here to watch this conversation on YouTube.Social Media:The Other 22 Hours InstagramThe Other 22 Hours TikTokMichaela Anne InstagramAaron Shafer-Haiss InstagramAll music written, performed, and produced by Aaron Shafer-Haiss.

"Ain't in It for My Health" is very different from Robbie's movie - it offers an intimate and revealing picture of The Band's legendary singer and drummer, Levon Helm, as he struggles with cancer while recording what ended up being the final studio album he released during his life, the Grammy-winning "Electric Dirt". We see Levon crack wise and offer hard-earned wisdom surrounded by family and friends (famous and obscure), undertake a short tour under challenging conditions, and work closely with guitarist/producer Larry Campbell.

Co-hosts Fr. Greg Sakowicz and Mark Teresi talk with Larry Campbell, Philip Bradley and Elfriede Wedam about the newest developments at Non-violence Works

Although he passed away a decade ago, Levon Helm is still the voice of Americana music. Always will be, in my opinion. Levon was drummer for The Band, collaborator with Bob Dylan, actor, husband, father, and friend. In his new book, Levon Helm: Rock, Roll, Ramble, author John Barry gives a first-hand account of Levon's struggles with cancer and financial ruin that led to the legendary Midnight Rambles concerts at his home in Woodstock, New York. On this episode of the Road to Now, Bob celebrates the life of Levon Helm with John, and musician and producer Larry Campbell who has worked with Levon, as well as Bob Dylan, Sheryl Crow, K.D. Lang, and Willie Nelson..­ This is a rebroadcast of RTN #250, which originally aired on October 22, 2022. This rebroadcast was edited by Otto Schroth.

We touch on the songs of Bob Dylan with performances by The Band, Chris Smither, Jimmy LaFave, and The Derek Trucks Band. The songs of Jerry Garcia and Robert Hunter are done by Joan Osborne, Catherine Russell, and Larry Campbell & Teresa Williams. Brandi Carlile does Leonard Cohen and Mary Black covers Joni Mitchell. You'll also hear various interpretations of Springsting, Zevon, The Beatles and more. https://buff.ly/3PfQKrn

Grateful Dead and Bob Dylan, July 10, 1987, JFK Stadium, Philadelphia, PAhttps://archive.org/details/gd87-07-10.senn.lai.3859.sbeok.shnf/gd87-07-10d1t108.shnDead played first set.Dylan backed by Dead played second setJFK big old concrete stadium in Philly.  Opened on April 15, 1926.  Hosted the Army Navy football game for many years.  Last live performance of any kind was Dead on July 7, 1989 with Bruce Hornsby and the Range opening.  Stadium was literally falling apart with dangerous chemicals exposed as well as electrical wiring.  Only reason they allowed the show to be played was because by the time the city inspector realized what was going on, stadium was already full of Deadheads.  Supposedly, there was a very strict no smoking policy enforced because of the hazards.  I'm guessing Deadhead's found a way to catch their buzz during the who.  Final tune:  Knocking on Heaven's Door.  Very appropriate.  On September 23, 1992 the stadium was finally demolished.I was only there once, in September 1981 for the opening show of the Rolling Stones Start Me Up tour.  Went with good buddies H, Mills and Lieby thanks to Uncle Dave.  George Thorogood and the Delaware Destroyers opened (One Bourbon, One Shot and One Beer), then Journey for maybe 45 minutes.  Fans got bored and started booing.  Finally the Stones – opened with Under My Thumb, they released balloons and well into the show H was convinced he could still see one or two of them.  Could have just been the shrooms we (most of us) were trying out for the first time.  Still almost a year before my first Dead show.  But psychedelics seemed very appropriate for a Stones shows made this one very memorable.INTRO:                             I Need a Miracle                                         Track No. 13                                         1:45-2:50                                         Mostly featuring the stuff with Dylan but wanted to get one Dead song in and this is an exceptionally great version of this song.  “Go right through the book and break each and every law” – another great Barlow lyric.  Was released as part of Shakedown Street (Nov. 15, 1978).  Always a high energy tune and maybe the highlight of the Dead's lone set.Dylan – set II with Dead backingSHOW #1:                        Tangled Up In Blue                                         Track No. 17                                         :20 – 1:36                                         From:  Blood on the Tracks                                         Released:  January 20, 1975                           This may be everyone's favorite Dylan tune.  Jerry loved it, a staple of the JGB, usually played as a set closer.  I love it here as the opener of the Dead's set with Dylan, a well known tune, Jerry jamming hard, and Dylan feeling the energy, love those excited vocals.  Sounds like he's have a great time.  Ok, Dylan's voice is not great BUT, it is much better than it is now AND it's the DEAD backing him (it was one thing to hear Jerry play it, but not often that the Dead played the tune!  Took a minute or two to adapt to that set up.  Start off strong, get everyone comfortable and fire up the crowd.  Mixed feelings in the crowd because folks realized Dead were only playing one set, but Dead were backing Dylan, and Dylan's voice may suck, but with the Dead the songs sound fresh and lively in a manner not normally seen at your standard Dylan show (except when he had Larry Campbell playing with him – he rocked too).SHOW #2:                        I'll  Be Your Baby Tonight                                         Track No. 18                                         0:00 – 1:14                                         From: John Wesley Harding                                         December 27, 1967                           Not necessarily my favorite Dylan tune, but anytime Jerry plays pedal steel it's worth noting and listening to.  The crowed realizes it and goes crazy.  I never got to see Jerry play that instrument and understand I missed something special.  So go back and listen to this tune again and focus on the pedal steel.  Well worth it. SHOW #3:                        Joey                                         Track No. 27                                         :38 – 1:52                                         From:  Desire                                         Released:  January 5, 1976                           "Joey" is an epic story-song from Bob Dylan's 1976 album Desire. It was written by Dylan and Jacques Levy, who collaborated with Dylan on most of the songs on the album. Like another long song on the album, "Hurricane", "Joey" is biographical. It tells the story of the life and death of mobster Joey Gallo, who was killed on his birthday at Umberto's Clam House in Little Italy, on April 7, 1972.                         The song's legacy remains mixed: a USA Today article ranking "all of Bob Dylan's songs" called it "forgettable" and lamented that it had replaced "Abandoned Love" on Desire's final track list[10] but in a readers' poll conducted by Mojo, "Joey" was rated the 74th most popular Bob Dylan song of all time.[11]Jerry Garcia, who was responsible for getting Dylan to start performing it live in 1987, considered it a "great song"[12] and Dylan himself characterized it as "Homeric" when discussing his Nobel Prize in Literature win with Edna Gundersen in 2016.[13] Critic Paul Zollo, writing in American Songwriter magazine, called it a "beautifully detailed and cinematic" song and a "masterpiece" in 2021.[14]                                    I started listening to it when they released the Dylan And The Dead album released February 6, 1989 featuring songs from this July, 1987 tour.                                                                                         :::SHOW #4:                        Watchtower                                         Track No. 28                                         1:56 – 3:26                                         From:  John Wesley Harding                                         December 27, 1967                           A great tune that the Dead rocked to.  We've talked about this song before, but Bobby really took off with it once they started playing it (first performance was a month before this tour, June 10, 1987 at the Greek.  Then played up until June 22, 1995 at the Knickerbocker Arena in Albany.  Great to hear the Dead rock it hard for Dylan. Interestingly, the show's encore was Touch of Grey which had not yet been officially released but was on In The Dark on July 6, 1987.  So four days before this show.  The Deadheads already knew it well – Dead started playing it in concert towards the very end of 1982.  I first heard it in April 1983 in Morgantown WV.  Not yet well known to the general public so no crazy crowd problems but they were just around the corner.All in all, a fun show.  Some good Dead.  Lots of good Dylan.  And a fun collaboration for the Deadheads.OUTRO:                           U.

(The Boss's “home”)                                         Goose - US Blues 7/4/23 Stone Pony - Asbury Park, NJ - YouTube                                         O:00 – 1:10                            First time played by Goose.  Solid performance, but a little too close to the vest for me  But with time, I have no doubt they can make it their own.  And credit for covering the Dead.  Not many bands will do that, ahem, “calling Phish?”  So this is two weeks in a row ending with this tune, but this is the one Goose covered (on the 4th after all) so this is what we get.  All in all, not a bad deal.                                                                                          NEWS:On July 10, 1986, Jerry slipped into Diabetic Coma.  As a result, the Dead had to cancel two shows scheduled for the Fox Theater in St. Louis later in the month.  I was devasted to hear the news about Jerry, we all wondered if this was it.  And I was bummed to miss the Fox Theater shows.  As we have discussed, in the late ‘60's and early ‘70's it was one of the Dead's favorite theaters to play, but they had not played there since 1972.  Folks out of town for the weekend, lots of friends and Deadheads all coming to St. Louis for the shows.  I had never seen the Dead in St. Louis and ultimately, did not until July, 1995 at the very end. And I had second row, orchestra, center – best seats I ever received from mail order. Then Jerry got sick and that was that.  Ultimately, Jerry survived, relearned the guitar and all the Dead songs and by December 15th he was back.  Very amazing. July 3, 2023Dead & Co at Folsom Field.  Dave Matthews joins at the end of the second set for Watchtower/Not Fade/Knocking on Heaven's Door/The Weight.  Great drones creating cool visuals like the Steal Your Face logo.  Got good reports from Alex and Andy – she is EVERYWHERE these days!  Dead & Co. down to the Gorge (just played this last weekend)  and then July 14, 15 and 16 at Oracle Park in S. F. (Giants' home stadium).  Then, ??????????????? July 2, 2023 – my first Les Claypool and Frog Brigade show at the Salt Shed in Chicago.  Went with good buddy Rob.  Very impressed with the band  - when the show opens with a cover of King Crimson's Thela Hun Ginjeet – you know it's going to be a good night.  Their songs after that were solid and everyone was very much enjoying the scene and that was before they blew us away with their cover of the Pink Floyd album, Animals (Jan. 21, 1977).  Entire album start to finish.  Then some more Frog Brigade and a fun night for all.  I will be back to see Frog Brigade and Primus (and Oysterhead – we should all be so lucky) MJ news to follow

Pete Mancini is a welcomed troubadour for our times, by building community though his music. His lyics are as comfortable as your favorite weather-worn blue jeans, and his style is reminiscent of Tom Petty and Hank Williams, with a hint of John Prine. Over the years, Mancini has opened for acts such as Jimmy Webb, Blues Traveler, Gin Blossoms, Southside Johnny & The Asbury Jukes, Pure Prairie League, Robbie Fulks, Amy Helm, Larry Campbell & Theresa Williams, Kevin Gordon, and Iain Matthews. I was fortunate to stumble on Mancini over a year ago during the pioneering days of The Long Island Sound podcast. Pete was one of my early guests on the podast and I was fortunate enough to sit down with him and talk about his travels and ever growing catalog of songs on the most recent episode out today. Pete Mancini keeps popping up on my radar. In a soon-to-be episode of The Long Island Sound Podcast, I interviewed Bill Herman of Paradiddle Records only to find Pete singing on the opening track of the Hank Williams Uncoved album, Lovesick Blues to perfection. More to come on the Hank William's project on May 12th. You can find a deeper conversation with Pete Mancini right here on The Long Island Sound. Learn how to discover new music and learn the methods and secrets of successful singer/songwriters and music professionals.  You host, Steve Yusko engages artists and music industry professionals from Manhattan to Montauk and abroad. You'll learn from the experiences and strategies of music professionals, as well as where to find live original music playing in New York City and on Long Island.  Don't miss out on this valuable information and fun conversation.   Please rate the show, wherever you get your comments.

This episode was recorded on February 24th, 2023, at the Kennedy Center in Washington DC. The lineup includes David Bromberg Quintet, Peter Rowan, Larry Campbell & Teresa Williams, The High Hawks, and Nora Brown & Stephanie Coleman. https://bit.ly/3V9xU6z

Jorma Kaukonen and Jack Casady are joined by Larry Campbell for the second set recorded November 5, 2022.

For the past several decades, Larry Campbell and Teresa Williams -- both together and separately -- have lived a life on the road performing music across the country and around the world.  Now over the past several years, this lovely couple has been playing music and traveling together, touring behind their new album, Live at Levon's!, representing the special time they have spent over the years at the iconic Levon Helm Studios in Woodstock, NY.  Larry is a gifted in-demand sideman originally from New York City, while Teresa is an extraordinary vocalist who came to NYC as an actor and singer, and eventually toured as a backing vocalist with legendary acts such as Mavis Staples, Emilou Harris, Jackson Browne and Bob Weir.  Larry is a noted record producer, toured as a guitarist in Bob Dylan's band for many years and was the Musical Director of Levon's Midnight Ramble Band for over a decade. Their musical lives are a tale of time spent on the road -- and now their paths have converged allowing them to create music and tour together. Their combined knowledge of road life and shared love of live performing serves as the constant impetus in their lives and they are here to share their wisdom about life, love and what is all means to them both individually and as a couple.  Come share Larry's and Teresa's love of music and road life on  this week's episode of Roadcase!For more info:https://www.larryandteresa.com/For more information on Roadcase: https://linktr.ee/roadcasepod and https://www.roadcasepod.comContact: info@roadcasepod.comTheme music:  "Eugene (Instrumental)" by Waltzer

Larry Campbell and Teresa Williams are a husband-and-wife musical power duo that have been performing together for nearly 20 years.  When talent of this caliber plays live, there can be magic — and with these two, there usually is. Duff and Matt sit down with Teresa and Larry to talk about the other dimension that musicians go to when they're in flow.

Plus Mother Maybelle Carter (“my first guitar hero”), June Carter Cash, Earl Scruggs, Doc Watson, Roy Acuff and Vassar Clements.Whether labelled Americana, Country Rock, Bluegrass or Traditional Country, the NGDB have come a long way since their early days as a Southern Californian jug band. Their most recent album is Dirt Does Dylan. Jeff sums it up: “Dylan was our North Star. He was always in the conversation. We would analyse every morsel of that sandwich”. Bring your appetite: this is a particularly tasty episode.Jeff Hanna has hundreds of recording credits as a composer, vocalist, arranger, producer and acoustic, electric, steel, slide and twelve-string guitarist. The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band recorded their first hit “Buy For Me The Rain” in 1967. An even bigger hit followed in 1970: a cover of Jerry Jeff Walker's “Mr. Bojangles,” with Jeff on vocals and guitar - it was eventually inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame. In 1971, the band and Jeff recorded Will The Circle Be Unbroken, one of the most influential albums of the era, introducing a generation of young musicians to the generation that came before. Two other Circle albums followed. In 2006, Hanna's composition “Bless The Broken Road” won a Grammy Award for Best Country Song. The NGDB celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2016 with a sold-out concert at the Ryman Auditorium and the live album “Circlin' Back”. “Dirt Does Dylan” was released in 2022.WebsiteTwitterTrailerEpisode playlist on AppleEpisode playlist on SpotifyListeners: please subscribe and/or leave a review and a rating.

Although he passed away a decade ago, Levon Helm is still the voice of Americana music. Always will be, in my opinion. Levon was drummer for The Band, collaborator with Bob Dylan, actor, husband, father, and friend. In his new book, Levon Helm: Rock, Roll, Ramble, author John Barry gives a first-hand account of Levon's struggles with cancer and financial ruin that led to the legendary Midnight Rambles concerts at his home in Woodstock, New York. In this episode of the Road to Now, Bob celebrates the life of Levon Helm with John, and musician and producer Larry Campbell who has worked with Levon, as well as Bob Dylan, Sheryl Crow, K.D. Lang, and Willie Nelson. This is an episode you don't want to miss.­ This episode was edited by Bob Crawford & Gary Fletcher

This week on the show is an incredible singer, songwriter and musician - Amy Helm. Amy has a sublime feel for music, and a really interesting story too. She grew up in New York, partly in the city and I think at various times with her dad in Woodstock - her dad, of course, being legendary Band drummer and singer, Levon Helm. She was around Levon's barn an awful lot and has seen that place go from its humble beginnings to a mecca for roots music, hosting some of the greatest live shows of the early 2000's onwards, known as the Midnight Ramble. Amy started a killer band in the early 2000's called Ollabelle, and they did alot of touring and recording, and made some great records too. When Levon got really sick with cancer in the early 2000's, Amy worked with him as he regained his speaking and eventually singing voice and she ended up producing the incredible Dirt Farmer album with Larry Campbell. Amy has put out 3 records under her own name, the most recent one we got to talk about quite a bit, and it's called “What The Flood Leaves Behind”. It's a masterful album, and she just keeps getting better. We talked about her recording and writing process and just had a great ol' conversation.
