Album Review: Larry Campbell and Teresa Williams by Larry Campbell

Excellent, Based on 3 Critics

AllMusic - 80
Based on rating 8/10

Though they've been married since 1988 and have often collaborated on other people's records, this Red House date marks the first shared album between session ace Larry Campbell and singer-guitarist Teresa Williams.

Teresa Williams has built an equally varied and successful career, from embodying the role of Sara Carter in several theatrical and film projects, touring with artists such as Phil Lesh and Friends, and recording with an array of top-tier performers including Emmy Lou Harris, Mavis Staples, and Little Feat. Despite all this, the married couple of Campbell and Williams had not found the opportunity to work together in any extended manner until Helm called them with an invite to join in on his well-known Midnight Rambles sessions.

Opinion: Very Good

During the last decade of his life, Levon Helm — the irrepressible drummer, singer and mandolinist best known for his tenure in the Band — routinely held court at his barn studio in Woodstock, N.Y. The Midnight Ramble, his regular get-together there, featured a trusted corps of musicians and frequent drop-ins by famous guests. A prized pilgrimage for fans of American roots music, it has kept going, off and on, since Mr.
