Gillian Welch & David Rawlings Live Show Review: 9/6, Cahn Auditorium, Evanston

David Rawlings & Gillian Welch

BY JORDAN MAINZER

In 2020, right before COVID shut down the country, a tornado outbreak tore through Nashville, killing 25, injuring hundreds, and leaving tens of thousands without electricity. Among the destruction was Woodland Sound Studios, the home studio of contemporary folk legends Gillian Welch and David Rawlings, which they spent the next years rebuilding, all while excavating treasure troves of unreleased tunes. But the first true phoenix to rise from the flames is Woodland (Acony), their latest studio album, which pays tribute not so much to a place that was and stands again, but the very act of creating in the face of loss. And the duo's performance of many of the album's songs last Friday at Cahn Auditorium, a pre-show for the inaugural Evanston Folk Festival, cemented the extent to which their creative power conquers all.

Welch

Welch and Rawlings dare you to focus away from absence. Though Woodland as an album benefits from various studio flourishes and guest players, its songs are strong in any capacity. During "Empty Trainload of Sky", the duo's tight vocal harmonies and Rawlings' bluesy picking didn't make you miss the studio version's propulsive percussion; instead, you were focused primarily on the way in which Welch turns a visual hallucination into a treatise on knowledge and doubt. "Was it spirit? Was it solid? Did I ditch that class in college?" she sings, simultaneously winking and full of wonder. Similarly, the poetry of "Hashtag" proved the studio version's French horns and strings to be borderline superfluous, the duo's Guy Clark-inspired musings garnering equal amounts laughs and existential crises. Even some songs themselves juxtapose elements that seem to be lacking, in a vacuum, with others that are more whole, the overall sum becoming something rather beautiful. On the wonderful "What We Had", Rawlings' cracking Neil Young falsetto contrasted the might of his guitars, as he and Welch harmonized and traded verses about impermanence: "What we had is broken, though we thought we'd never lose it." The rolling "The Day The Mississippi Died", which imagines this country's preeminent river drying up, sees a mix of tragedy and jubilation in the apocalypse, the best song of its kind since Joan Shelley's "The Fading".

Paul Kowert, Rawlings, & Welch

Of course, when listening to a Welch and Rawlings album, or witnessing one of their life-affirming live shows, you can't help but be wowed by the interplay of the two singers and players. If I hadn't written it down, I wouldn't have been able to tell you on which songs they were joined by upright bassist Paul Kowert; even though his playing was terrific, Welch and Rawlings draw your attention. Rawlings' prickly leads played off of Welch's high-register, rhythmic wincing on "The Bells and the Birds". In terms of stage presence, Welch is the silent and still warrior, Rawlings jerky, his expressions embedding within her strums on "Lawnman" and her mournful declarations on classic "Revelator". Perhaps the song that best encapsulated both their creative partnership and their strengthened appreciation for music-making was "Howdy Howdy". "Dry your eyes, don't you cry, ain't gonna rain no more," Welch sings to Rawlings', as if she's comforting him in the face of tragedy; the chorus of "You and me are always gonna be howdy howdy / You and me, always walk that lonesome valley" acts as a statement of purpose. Before playing the song on Friday, Welch was having trouble tuning her banjo, so Rawlings nursed it back to health so they could move on. On both Woodland and forever, Welch and Rawlings have each other's back.

In Today’s Post (The UPS Edition) Friday, 18 December 2020:

Boots No. 2: The Lost Songs Volume 1, 2, 3 Gillian Welch (Acony)

Such unwieldy titles these archive releases acquire!  After that first “bootleg” release of Ms Welch’s (Boots No. 1: The Official Revival Bootleg) I had decided I didn’t need to invest in any more editions.  Yes, it was interesting but the outtakes didn’t vary that much from the originals and it did contain eight songs not on the album.  But it arrived at an inopportune time and I didn’t spend a lot of time with it, so I was feeling rather curmudgeonly about it.  

Then when All The Good Times came out this triple disc set was mentioned.  I can no longer recall if All The Good Times was supposed to be download only or if this big triple CD box was to be download only.  I only know they both ended up having physical releases.  I didn’t anticipate this box coming out until after Christmas because of COVID, the schedule got delayed.  For all I know the box of LPs might still be delayed, but since I buy Welch’s work on CD, I opted for the CD box.  I almost wish I would have gone with the LPs but I’m sure had they arrived I would have wished I went with the CDs.  The life of a record collector.

The three CDs, all in jewel cases which is rare these days, are stored in an album sized box that is textured and very swanky feeling.  The first two photos are of the front of the box and the back of the box.  (That cover was pulled off her website, but the back is my actual copy.  you can see a lot of reflection there, but I set up my camera on the other side of the room as I didn’t want my ugly mug to show on the back of the box.  nothing worse than those clown collectors whose iPhone or their own body showing up in the object they are photographing.  If you are trying to run an archival site like discogs or 45cat, those boys whose reflection always show up in their own picture destroy the credibility of the site.  That’s why one site will always be far better at archiving than the other (yet both have their moments).  

The remaining scans are of the front and the back of each jewel case.  Volume 1 is first, of course, followed by Volume 2 and Volume 3.  Then you will find a mock up of the cover of the first volume.  That’s how it looks on Welch’s website.  I kind of hope that the vinyl cover looks like that because I like it much better.  Perhaps that is an obi that will show up on the side of the LP cover, which would also be sharp.  Acony, the label for Welch and her partner David Rawlings, does quality work, so the LP cover might just look like that.  We’ll see, if anyone ever posts them on discogs.  (I haven’t posted any of these photos on discogs because no one even has the set mentioned there and I’m not about to spend the rest of today and most of tomorrow inputting information that will be endlessly taken apart, no matter how perfect it is.  I only provide discogs with photos these days.  

The penultimate scan is of the actual CD of Volume 1.  The other two CDs look the same and are colored to corresponded with the color you find on the inserts and back covers.  finally the last scan is the cover of the 62 page paperback book.  It is the size of a magazine with a nice textured cover containing all the lyrics and chords for those of you who want to play along at home.

David Rawlings - Poor David’s Almanack (Acony Records)

David Rawlings – Poor David’s Almanack (Acony Records)

  This is David Rawlings’ third album under his own name, or that of The Dave Rawlings Machine. But really, this can easily be considered a Rawlings/Welch album, as Rawlings’ long-time partner Gillian Welch co-writes half five of the album’s ten songs, and sings and plays on all of them. (more…)

Live Picks: 5/9

Willie Watson

BY JORDAN MAINZER

A hardcore legend’s no-longer side project, a rising folk star, and the best of what Chicago has to offer.

Wear Your Wounds, Empty Bottle

Starting as the solo project of Converge’s Jacob Bannon, Wear Your Wounds has made the final transformation into a five-piece band. After the release of their debut album WYW, Bannon assembled a band to play festivals. Not counting singles, experimental releases, and a live album, WYW’s true followup comes out in July. Recorded with the entire band, which now consists of Mike McKenzie, Adam McGrath, Sean Martin, and Chris Maggio, as well as guest appearances from  Ben Chisholm and and Gared O’Donnell, Rust on the Gates of Heaven promises to be a fuller affair. If the title track, the only released so far, is indicative of the album as a whole, it continues to show Bannon move beyond his hardcore leanings. Starting with solemn, intersecting piano lines, foreboding cymbals, and Bannon’s mournful vocals, it builds up into a bed of militaristic snares, weeping guitars, and deep bass, slow-burning metal for the melancholy.

NYC noise duo Uniform and local metal band Unmanned Ship open.

Willie Watson, Old Town School of Folk Music

A founding member of Old Crow Medicine Show, folk singer Willie Watson has broken out as a solo artist the past few years. He’s released two records, aptly titled Folk Singer Vol. 1 and Folk Singer Vol. 2, and appeared last year in The Coen Brothers’ The Ballad of Buster Scruggs. Tonight, expect to hear tracks from both albums and possibly his rendition of David Rawlings and Gillian Welch’s Oscar-nominated Scruggs track “When A Cowboy Trades His Spurs For Wings”.

Raleigh singer-songwriter Kate Rhudy opens.

CFA Media Mixer, Constellation

Bonus pick! Tonight at Constellation, you can catch the premiere of three audiovisual collaborations, local artists and footage from the Chicago Film Archives’ collection. The artist pairings are SILY favorite Bill MacKay with Brian Ashby, Natalie Chami of TALsounds with Emily Eddy, and cellist Lilianna Zofia Wosko with Amir George.

In Today’s Post Wednesday, 18, 2020:

A Friend Of A Friend Dave Rawlings Machine (Acony Records)

Gillian Welch and David Rawlings have made nine albums together (I’m not counting their single “Boots” archive release that will leap by three come mid-December) under various monikers: Gillian Welch, Dave Rawlings Machine, David Rawlings, Gillian Welch and David Rawlings.  I’m not sure how they choose what album gets what band name release.  Honestly I don’t know a lot aobut them other than Robyn Hitchcock enjoys their work so much he made an album with them (Spooked).

This album is the first album released under Rawlings’ moniker Dave Rawlings Machine.  It came out in 2009.  Since it was the only one I lacked I figured it was time it needed to come into the fold.  That and a dealer I like on discogs had it in his catalog and I was buying his stock of old Marty Willson-Piper albums. 

The scans here include the album cover in the jewel case, the CD, and the back of the jewel case.  Since this is a promo it has a sticker on the back of the jewel case that lists the running times of the songs.  Also on that sticker is a notice that one song contains “explicit lyrics.”  That track is a medley of a Conor Oberst tune and a Neil Young tune.  I’m unfamiliar with Oberst’s tune but not Oberst himself.  I worked hard for a few years trying hard to really like his music when he was going by the name Bright Eyes.  I made believe that I liked his work, even putting an album in my Top Ten one year.  I’ve not listened to Bright Eyes in what must be a decade and I could easily trade all of his LPs and CDs to make room on my shelves and never feel the pang of remorse. 

The final scan is the back of the disc without that little sticker on it (I simply removed the inlay from the jewel case).  I’m considering scraping that sticker right off because I’m not sure if it belongs there or not.  There isn’t any documentation on discogs as to whether or not this is normal or not, so I will have no help from them.
