The home of music journalist Nicholas Jennings, author of Lightfoot, the definitive new Gordon Lightfoot biography from Penguin Random House.
Solomon Burke - Nashville
Tom Waits calls him “one of the architects of American music.” While Burke’s best known for soul and r&b, his love of hurtin’ music is genuine. That fondness shines through on duets with Gillian Welch (“Valley of Tears”) and Dolly Parton (“Tomorrow is Forever”). Other pairings include the gospel-country magic with Patty Griffin on “Up on the Mountain” and some sweet harmony with Emmylou Harris on “We’re Gonna Hold On.” Not since Ray Charles first embraced the music has country sounded so soulful.
