The Band – High on the Hog - 30th Anniversary Edition (CD)
Product Details
High on the Hog, released in 1996, found Levon Helm, Rick Danko, and Garth Hudson carrying the Band's name into its fourth decade, a testament to how deeply that sound had burrowed into American roots music. The trio had survived more loss than most bands ever face, and the grooves here reflect hard-won resilience rather than nostalgia.
From its first driving percussive beats and fuzzy guitar riffs, High on the Hog soars. More than two years after Jericho, the group's impressive comeback album, the Band still sounds gorgeously funky and unlike any other -- even with the loss of two key members (Robbie Robertson quit in 1976; Richard Manuel took his own life in 1986). Now Levon Helm, Rick Danko and Garth Hudson wear the royal mantle, and here they make music with cohesiveness and assurance that come only with maturity. (--Marjorie Rosen, People Magazine)
