Local record news
Chip Taylor and Carrie Rodriguez are set to release the “Live From the Ruhr Triennale- October 2005” CD Oct. 2. Featuring Bill Frisell on guitar and steel player Greg Leisz, the material is a mix of Taylor chestnuts, such as “Wild Thing” and “Angel of the Morning,” Chip & Carrie duets (“Laredo,” “Let’s Leave This Town”) and covers of well-known songs such as “Long Black Veil” and “Maybelline.” “That chill factor was never more in evidence than on the evenings of October 11th and 13th of October, 2005,” Taylor writes on the liner notes. “Surrounded by the magnetic sounds of Bill Frisell and the boys, Carrie and I rocked and floated in musical places we had never been.”
