We've had terrific company: David Hidalgo from Los Lobos and Howlin' Wolf guitarist, Hubert Sumlin, both sat in on guitar and we're doing a number of dates with Emmylou Harris as guest vocalist — it doesn't get any better than singing harmony with Emmy. | ||
"The Knowing" by Lucinda Williams | |||

She cut the great "Let Me Down Easy" way back, and now Joe Henry — who produced Solomon Burke's ''Don't Give Up On Me'' — has done a great new record with her ''I've Got My Own Hell To Raise''. | |||
Funniest moment | |||
More tragi-comic really — turning up at a circus in Konstanz, Germany and finding that we were sharing the bill with a puppet theatre was rather Spinal Tap. | More tragi-comic really — turning up at a circus in Konstanz, Germany and finding that we were sharing the bill with a puppet theatre was rather Spinal Tap. | ||

A dead heat with my wife, Diana [Krall]'s swinging show in Shanghai. Singing about being a son and a father isn't easy rock 'n' roll territory, but Bruce really drew people in. | A dead heat with my wife, Diana [Krall]'s swinging show in Shanghai.
