Here we go Music Monday, with the next song from Live at the Paradiso, Amsterdam, 2007. Again, the music for “Tennessee” was given to me by John Leventhal.

The album is Fat City and it was produced by Larry Klein. I worked up the courage to ask Richard Thompson to play the solo - I knew he would shred it, and he did. But here, in t

Music Monday Howdy all. “Wichita Skyline” is up next in the continuing saga of my show, Live at the Paradiso in Amsterdam, 2007. John Leventhal wrote music that put me in mind of the South Dakota plains, my homeland. However, no town in SD sang as well “Wichita”, so Kansas it was. Absent from this live performance is John’s baritone guitar line from the record, an homage to “Wichita Lineman”. Then I pulled up a map of Kansas and it all kind of came together. “Skyline” came from the Dylan album,

#MusicMonday “Summer Dress”, from the These Four Walls album (released 2006) is this Monday’s tune from Live at the Paradiso (Amsterdam, 2007), a concert that I had no idea was being filmed! It’s fun to say a little bit about how these songs came about……… As is often the case, John Leventhal offered up to me some music that seemed to be the verses. Lyrics were needed. So. I was backstage getting ready to play a concert at the Salt Lake City Botanical Gardens one beautiful summer day. I’d been tr

#MusicMonday The next tune from Live at the Paradiso, Amsterdam 2007 is “That Don’t Worry Me Now”. John Leventhal wrote some gorgeous music and I had no idea how to honor it. Then I watched an absolutely transcendent program about Martin Luther King, Jr. on PBS, and it all came together. #thatdontworrymenow #johnleventhal #paradiso #mlkjr #martinlutherkingjr #amsterdam #liveperformance #acoustic | Shawn Colvin
