Helm, Levon
Dirt Farmer
Factory Sealed, Limited Edition, Hand Numbered (Inside) 180gm Original With Custom Hype Sticker On The Shrink-Wrap. 2008 Grammy Winner For Best Traditional Folk Album. "When The Band’s Levon Helm Underwent Surgery For Throat Cancer In 1998, It Seemed That He Might Never Sing Again. So It’s No Surprise That Helm Pours Everything He Has Into Dirt Farmer, His First Solo Studio Album In 25 Years. What Is Surprising Is That He Sounds As Good As Ever, Which Means He Sounds Good Enough To Put Most Country And Americana Singers To Shame. Dirt Farmer Is Full Of Traditional Songs Helm Learned Growing Up In Arkansas, And It’s Clear That The Tracks Mean A Lot To Him, As Does The Fact That He’s Harmonizing On Them With His Daughter Amy. If There’s One Complaint, It’s That Dirt Farmer Relies A Little Too Much On Slow And Mid-Tempo Numbers. It’d Be Nice To Hear Helm Sink His Teeth Into A Barn-Burner Once In A While. But Hopefully Dirt Farmer Is Just The Start—Not The Culmination—Of Helm’s Amazing Comeback." - Hal Bienstock, Harp
