Billy Bragg and Joe Henry
Shine A Light Field Recordings
The new Billy Bragg and Joe Henry album 'Shine A Light Field Recordings From The Great American Railroad' on Cooking Vinyl. In March 2016 Billy Bragg and Joe Henry, guitars in hand, boarded a Los Angeles-bound train at Chicago's Union Station looking to reconnect with the culture of American railroad travel and the music it inspired. Winding along 2,728 miles of track over four days, the pair recorded classic railroad songs in waiting rooms and at trackside while the train paused to pick up passengers.
