Later Days

Steve Forbert Interview ~ Part 1


Listen Later

Steve Forbert is one of the few artists who can mesmerize a crowd with nothing but a distinctive voice, an acoustic guitar and his trusty harmonica slung around his neck. More than four decades have passed since Steve first made his way to New York City from Meridian, Mississippi. Steve's debut album 'Alive on Arrival' became one of 1978's most acclaimed records. Rolling Stone contributing editor David Wild recently reflected that "now or then he would be hard-pressed to find a debut effort that was simultaneously as fresh and accomplished" comparing it to "a great first novel by a young author who somehow managed to split the difference between Mark Twain and JD Salinger." One track from that album, 'Grand Central Station March 18, 1977' earned Steve a spot on the 2014 Village Voice list of the 60 best songs ever written about New York City.

Produced by: Joe Poletto & Karl Derfler Engineered by: Karl Derfler Production Director: David Gross Production Managers: Michelle Garramone & Kelsey Kirpich "Later Days" song by The Mother Hips
