#318 – Luther Russell – Selective Memories – Working with Jakob Dylan, Members of Black Crowes, Big Star and More

Luther Russell may not be a household name, but he’s managed to put together an impressive body of work over the last 30 years.  He played in a pre-Wallflowers band with Jakob Dylan called The Bootheels;  got signed to a major label in the 1990’s with the roots-rock outfit, The Freewheelers; worked with former Black Crowes’ guitarist Marc Ford in Federale, and is currently in a band with Big Star drummer Jody Stephens called Those Pretty Wrongs.  He’s also done several solo albums where he’s played all the instruments himself.

The highlights of his multi-faceted career have been cobbled together in Selective Memories: An Anthology, just out from Hanky Panky Records.
