I asked them what song they were playing and in unison they replied, “something we just made up.” I hit record on my iPhone and asked them to play it again.

Having a few years ago written a memoir, my sensibilities toward narrative – especially trying to find a common thread in different pieces of writing – had become a part of my songwriting process.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eClose Ties\u003c\/em\u003e is a roots record, in the sense that Crowell himself has deep roots that stretch back into the alternative country scene of the early seventies. The rise of Americana music has struck a nerve with Crowell. “I have declared my loyalty to Americana. It’s a hard category for people to get their heads around, or at least the terminology is. But all the people who represent it – Townes van Zandt, Guy Clark, Lucinda Williams, Steve Earle and more recent stars like John Paul White and Jason Isbell – share a common thread, and that thread is poetry. Whether they are actual poets or their music exemplifies a poetic sensibility, generally speaking, the Americana artist shuns commercial compromise in favor of a singular vision. Which resonates with me.” There is also a powerful undercurrent of the blues running through the record. “Recently, I think – I hope – that my study of the blues is starting to show up in my music. Those artists, whether it’s Lightnin’ Hopkins or John Lee Hooker or the acoustic Delta players, connected to something fundamental. With that in mind, I’m trying to move forward but also get back there.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTRACKLIST:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSide A -\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEast Houston Blues\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReckless\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLife Without Susanna\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIt Ain’t Over Yet (feat.

Using their melody almost entirely, I spent a couple of months composing the words to “Come Christmas.” A generation had passed since I first made up a Christmas song with their mother.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eSometime later, in rapid succession, I came up with “Christmas in New York,” “When the Fat Guy Tries the Chimney On For Size,” “Christmas For the Blues” and, again with Mary Karr, “Let’s Skip Christmas This Year.”  With those tunes in the bag, I began entertaining the rather vague idea of writing something that Spike Jones might have recorded in his heyday. The lyrical ideas for “Christmas Everywhere,” came fast, as did the realization that if I were ever going to realize the song’s compositional possibilities, I would need help from the premier Gypsy Jazz guitarist and composer, John Jorgenson.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eI\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e was finally ready to record an album of original Christmas songs.

The record was close to being finished when it occurred to me that to set the tone for the albums mostly irreverent subtext, I needed to compose a lyrical prelude. In honor of Clement Moore, who wrote the poem we all know as, \"The Night Before Christmas,\" I came up with a short piece called “Clement’s Lament (We’ll See You in The Mall)”. Tania Hancheroff and Kim Keyes stopped by the studio and performed the tune with Jordan Lehning’s orchestral backing and the album was pronounced complete.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eSeasons Cheer,\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eRodney Crowell\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTRACKLIST:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSide A - \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClement’s Lament (We’ll See You In The Mall)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChristmas Everywhere (feat.

It’s the road he and producer Tyler Bryant drove to reach the remote studio where they recorded these songs, hauling a truckload of gear on a two-day journey that ended in swamps. Along the way Crowell looked up the route they were driving: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAirline Highway\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e. It’s the southernmost segment of Highway 61, also called the Blues Highway or the Great River Road, and it follows the Mississippi River from Minnesota down to New Orleans. Crowell is intimately familiar with this part of the country. He grew up on the east side of Houston, just a few hours west of the state line, and made wild forays into Louisiana as a young man to drink or carouse or mostly to catch live music.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eAirline Highway\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e is an album full of old, abiding loves, whether it’s a favorite song or a lover you remember fondly. Songs like “Sometime Thang” and “Rainy Days in California” (the latter featuring Lukas Nelson) raise a glass to old romances and encounters with different women in California or down in Louisiana: falling in love, toughing out hard times, growing apart until they become “that small voice on your phone,” to quote a devastating line on “Taking Flight,” co-written with and featuring Ashley McBryde. Some are fictional, Crowell explains, but they all contain some kernel of truth.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e“At a basic level there are a lot more years behind me than there are ahead of me. I’m up in my seventieth decade of my life, and I’m glad that I’m still looking forward to certain things I want to do, but a lot of what’s worth talking about is behind me.” One of the things Crowell looks forward to is making more music with musicians he genuinely loves. “I’m just in love with the experience now. I’ve worked with amazing people in the past, but I was looking too far ahead. I wanted the music we were creating to make a name for me, so I wasn’t completely present with them. My ego was involved. But now my ego seems to have finally evaporated. Now it’s just about the work and what a blessing it is to be able to do it.

I thought that was a clever way of saying that what was happening then is happening now.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBack in 2006, Crowell was in high cotton. He was coming off a trilogy of albums—\u003cem\u003eThe Houston Kid\u003c\/em\u003e in 2001, \u003cem\u003eFate’s Right Hand\u003c\/em\u003e in 2003, \u003cem\u003eThe Outsider\u003c\/em\u003e in 2005—that re-established him as a fearless voice in Americana and attracted new generations of fans drawn to his compassionate storytelling, his detail-laden songwriting, and his eloquent outrage over political injustices. In 2005 he went into Treasure Isle Studios in Nashville to record what would become \u003cem\u003eThen Again\u003c\/em\u003e. But when he heard the masters, something didn’t feel quite right. The band was smokin’ hot and the songs sounded good, but the album just didn’t move him and he struggled to figure out exactly what was wrong or what was missing. Twenty years later, when he found the album in his vaults, he couldn’t remember exactly what tripped him up. He decided it was finally time, if only because “I heard a record I wasn’t sick of. I was no longer sick of myself. That’s what 20 years will do for you.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce lost and now found, \u003cem\u003eThen Again\u003c\/em\u003e is something the Rodney Crowell of the 2000s could never have predicted but something the Rodney Crowell of the 2020s recognizes instinctively: a work of nuance, insight, and sensitivity that considers death but celebrates life. “I’m trying to understand that this spirit of mine is going to leave this body and go off somewhere else. I’ve got a pretty good idea that it’s going to be someplace good, but I still need to perfect some part of my spiritual journey here before I check out. I can see that in these songs now.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTRACKLIST: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSide A - \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Won’t Lie\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAre You One of Us?
