Description: | As may be discerned from the title and tracklist, it's a love letter of sorts to some of Kurtâ??s musical heroes and to Nashville, where it was recorded. It has two covers of John Prine â?? 'Speed of the Sound of Lonelinessâ?? and â??How Luckyâ?? â?? with Prine himself appearing on vocals and guitar on the latter, in one of his final recordings made at the beginning of this year. Elsewhere it features two new original Kurt Vile songs (â??Dandelionsâ??, â??Pearlsâ??), and a cover of Cowboy Jack Clement (â??Gone Girlâ??).
The recordings feature a truly all-star cast of musicians including Dan Auerbach (Black Keys), Matt Sweeney, and a host of legendary Nashville session players including 'You Are Always On My Mindâ?? keyboardist Bobby Wood (Wille Nelson, Elvis Presley, Merle Haggard, Johnny Cash), bassist Dave Roe (Johnny Cash, Loretta Lynn, Jerry Reed), mandolin player Pat McLaughlin (Johnny Cash, Jack Clement, Neil Diamond), and drummer Kenny Malone (John Prine, Tony Joe White) - Including limited poster if ordered from official website (first 100 orders). Poster artwork credited on the poster as "Prine, KV and Ferg as Babies" drawn by Delphine Vile in Nashville (morning after "how lucky").
A hype sticker reads: 'The new EP from Kurt Vile featuring the single "How Lucky" with John Prine. Recorded at The Butcher Shoppe in Nashville with David R. "Fergie" Ferguson.'
