Robben Ford Discussion

[sfhalo]

Since I purchased Truth on iTunes and don't have a CD sleeve, I don't have a listing of the musicians by song and would really appreciate it if someone would provide the info. Thanks, very much.
P.S. I love the CD.........as always, Robben's playing is spectacular and his voice gets better and better as he ages. As some of you may remember, I've mentioned in previous posts how much I love Robben's "crystal chords"...check out the two "power chords" at 3:48 on "Too Much." And, the interplay between Robben and Larry Goldings (I think he's on this track) is fabulous. Each time I listen to the CD, I find another small thing I love about different songs......incredible tone, phrasing, etc. All-in-all..........a wonderul addition to Robben's discography.

Blue.........thanks so much! The Truth recording is really interesting with the various rhythm sections. The "feel" really changes depending on drums/bass and keyboard players. The more I listen to it, the more I like it and discover new "things" at each listening. I'm a Carl Verheyen fan also and see that Robben used Carl's drummer, Bernie Dresel on Moonchild Blues. As big as L.A. is..............the music world is very tight. Thanks, once again, for the time spent listing the musicians by track.
