Cowboy Junkies: Music Is The Drug - The Podcast Folgen

Having opened this series with the first song Cowboy Junkies put on record, for our second episode, we've gone to to the other end of the spectrum with "Ornette Coleman", the final song on their most recent album, "Ghosts". It's one of Michael Timmins' most obviously autobiographical songs, about the time he and Alan Anton spent in London in the early 1980s, playing in a band called Germinal and immersing themselves in a very different musical landscape. Mike and Al talk us through those old times and explain just how Ornette Coleman helped them find a way towards what would eventually become Cowboy Junkies. "Cowboy Junkies - Music Is The Drug" is hosted by Dave Bowler, author of the authorised biography of the band. To order it from the band, click here.
