Product description
Tom Russell's brand-new studio album Folk Hotel showcases 13 new Russell originals plus, as one of two bonus tracks, Bob Dylan's "Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues," a duet with Joe Ely. Augie Meyers and Eliza Gilkyson also make guest appearances on the album, which was recorded at Congress House studio in Austin, Texas.
A signature Tom Russell collection, the wide-ranging subject matter on "Folk Hotel" includes songs and stories about New York's Chelsea Hotel, a journey up the road from El Paso to Santa Fe, a cowboy song about Ian Tyson refusing to "leave his old horses", a song for Dylan Thomas - melting into a James Joycean landscape about day in the life of Belfast, a song about Tom meeting J.F.K., another song using only 16th century slang and more...

- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 23 November 2017Tom Russell is one of the top singer songwriter around and this album is no exception to the rule. The tracks are well crafted and the vocals exceptional as always as Tom weaves the stories through the album. 12 tracks plus two bonus tracks makes this a nice package. Not to be missed if you are already a fan or just curious about the artist. Highly recommended
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 10 September 2017Every time I buy a new Tom Russell album I think it can't possibly be better than the previous ones and invariably I'm proved wrong. The depth of the guys song writing talents are bottomless and he's got a voice that the angels will kill for A+++++

Shipping not quick, but not complaining.

5.0 out of 5 stars You never know what to expect but you are never disappointed. The Folk in the title gives a clue ...
I've got so many Tom Russell albums - they all have something to offer, there is always something different. You never know what to expect but you are never disappointed. The Folk in the title gives a clue to the content but there is so much more - from the Drunk to the Poet and everyone between Tom covers them all (often at the same time). If Dylan doesn't do it for you anymore give Tom a try.

4.0 out of 5 stars Un des rois de l' americana
Tom Russell peut se targuer d'une carrière imposante, 40 années de bons et loyaux services et 36 disques à son actif, et pourtant pratiquement inconnu dans l'hexagone. Tom Russell est un des pères fondateurs de l'Americana, grand raconteur d'histoires qui fleurent bon le désert du Nouveau-Mexique, mais pas que , car Russell a roulé sa bosse sur presque tous les continents et trouve dans ces expériences son inspiration de songwriter.
Ce "Folk Hotel" vient donc s'ajouter à la belle discographie de cet artiste, avec toujours ces sonorités Tex-Mex qui sont sa marque de fabrique.
Russell a convié pour cet exercice Joel Guzman le remarquable accordéoniste de Joe Ely , lui même présent sur un titre. Eliza Gilkyson vient faire les harmonies vocales sur plusieurs chansons , Redd Volkaert guitariste renommé vient aussi apporter sa contribution.
Si le ton principal nous vient du Texas, Tom Russell nous emmène aussi en voyage ailleurs dans le monde avec "The Streets of London" une reprise du célèbre Ralph McTell , on fait un petit crochet par l'Irlande "All on a Bealfast Morning" et le Danemark "The Rooftops of Copenhagen".
La vois chaude et expressive de Tom Russell fait merveille sur ses superbes chansons . Sa musique est un savant et subtil mélange de folk, country et blues servi par des musiciens orfèvres dans leur domaine.
En bonus une géniale reprise du "Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues "de Dylan , en duo avec Joe Ely .
A ranger pas loin de Dave Alvin, Alejandro Escovedo Joe Ely et certains Ry Cooder.
