Popdose: CD Review: Levon Helm, “Electric Dirt”

    Being a major Randy Newman fan, I was eager to hear Kingfish... and wow! This version kicks like a mule. Excellent.

    I think I've said it before here, but I truly believe a Ramble is something that anyone who loves music should experience at least once - watching from 5 feet away as Levon drums and sings for over two hours really is something else. Also, has anyone ever made such a drastic recovery from throat cancer? Not only does his voice sounds like it's back to 100% - when I saw him last year, he sounded better than he did on anything he's recorded since The Last Waltz!

    I'm glad he's doing well. I saw a TV report on him a couple of years ago, and he didn't look too well. Perhaps the healing power of music!
