Description:Das neueste Album von Son Volt, Day of the Doug, widmet sich der Musik des legendären texanischen Troubadours Doug Sahm (Sir Douglas Quintet). Natürlich ist viel mehr als liebevolle Erinnerung und farbenfrohe Hommage. Es ist eine Beschwörung und Feier eines Songwriters und Performers, dessen Arbeit Country, Tex-Mex, Rock, Rhythm and Blues, Folk und Psychedelia zu einem absolut einzigartigen amerikanischen Sound geschmiedet hat. Sahms 50-jährige Karriere war eine rastlose und unerbittliche Suche nach dem Heiligen Gral des â??Groovesâ??. Als Kind spielte er mit Hank Williams Sr. Pedal Steel, bevor er mit dem Sir Douglas Quintet drei Top-40-Hits landete und eine schwindelerregende Zahl an Solowerken mit einer Reihe wechselnder Persönlichkeiten auf einem Karussell von Plattenlabels aufnahm. Son Volts elfte Veröffentlichung seit Trace aus dem Jahr 1995 tritt selbstbewusst in Sahms FuÃ?stapfen. Wie jede Reise auf der Suche nach einem Gral sucht auch â??Day of the Dougâ?? nach all den Dingen, die junge Künstler dazu bringen, sich überhaupt ins Musikmachen zu verlieben: Abenteuer, Neugierde und die Chance, ein bisschen Unsterblichkeit zu ergattern. -
Vinyl LP pressing. 2023 release. In 2020, Son Volt planned to celebrate the 25th anniversary of their seminal album, Trace, with a tour that played the album from top to bottom. The pandemic had other plans. Flash forward to 2023 and they are on the road with a setlist that features Trace from beginning to end, an homage to Doug Sahm (Sir Douglas Quintet, Texas Tornados) and a celebration of 28 years of Son Volt. Son Volt's latest record, Day of the Doug, revisits the music of legendary Texas troubadour Doug Sahm. But it's much more than fond remembrance and colorful tribute. It is a summoning and a celebration of a songwriter and performer whose work forged country, Tex-Mex, rock, rhythm and blues, folk, and psychedelia into an utterly unique American sound. Day of the Doug steps confidently on the trails Sahm blazed. Like any journey to find a grail, Day of the Doug also seeks out all the things that make young artists fall in love with making music in the first place: adventure, youth novelty, and a chance to snatch a bit of immortality. "It's like reconnecting with a hero," says Son Volt founder Jay Farrar. "And getting back to the same kind of perspective I had when I was starting out as a younger musician. I think it's just important to step back from what you normally do. Take stock. Take inspiration. And see where it leads from there."
