Wanee may have been a few weeks ago, but the recordings continue to pour in. The latest, courtesy of Z-Man, is the guest-galore North Mississippi Allstars set.
While sit-ins are the norm at Wanee, NMA’s set was a special treat. Luther and the crew welcomed six guests over the course of their set to sit in on a variety of originals and covers. With a sit-in on “All Night Long > Turn On Your Lovelight,” JoJo Herman of Widespread Panic on keyboards and Jack Ryan of Marcus King Band on drums were the first to guests of the set.
Other highlights include Grahame Lesh and Jason Crosby on a couple of familiar tunes including “Deep Elem Blues” and “Goin’ Down The Road Feelin’ Bad,” Marcus King lending his talents to “Crossroads” and finally the “We Bid You Goodnight” encore with tons of Tom Petty references.
