Carrie Rodriguez "I Cry For Love"

The Guy Clark tribute at The Long Center in Austin was a simply marvelous affair; amazing people doing amazing songs.  Guy is the possessor of a lifetime catalog of quiet snapshot moments, insightful reflections, and songs about true love.  As I get older, it seems to me that men are more romantic than women.  Guy’s love songs are tender and heartfelt.  I encourage you to pick up a copy of the new tribute album coming out on December 6th, This One’s For Him, or for that matter, any of Guy’s wonderful albums through the years. Much to dig into. And a special thanks to Tamara Saviano, Dr. Gary Hartman, and Kathleen O’Keefe for a job well done on the show.

This week, we've brought you several unreleased tunes, as we continue to roll out what we captured at Marathon Recorders last month at Americana Fest.  It amazes me that so many artists come to us with brand new tunes. We are humbled by the trust. Today, we bring you a unreleased song from the stunning and massively talented Carrie Rodriguez, written by Chip Taylor. She is touring Europe right now, and you simply have to see her if you are in the UK, Italy, France, or Belgium.  The last time we did a session with her, it was just Carrie and Hans Holzen. This time she bought the whole band. Here's Carrie and Hans,  along with Luke Jacobs, Ryan Lovan, and Kyle Kegerreis, doing “I Cry For Love,” OK maybe the girls are romantic too...!!
