Description
"Slice O Life" is a double CD for the price of one that showcases a cross-section of Bruce Cockburn's finest songs and some of his most dazzling guitar work. Recorded last spring over a series of dates in the northeastern United States and one in Quebec, "Slice O Life" is a double CD that showcases a cross-section of Cockburn's finest songs and some of his most dazzling guitar work.
The album, produced by longtime associate Colin Linden, also includes one new song, "City Is Hungry", three tracks recorded at sound checks on the tour and some between-song banter that shows Cockburn to be both a quick wit and an engaging storyteller. "Slice O Life" features such hits as Cockburn's controversial "If I Had A Rocket Launcher", his classic "Lovers In A Dangerous Time" and his breakthrough "Wondering Where The Lions Are".
Originally recorded with a full band, these and other songs like "World Of Wonders" have been rearranged and performed on acoustic guitar - often with stunning results. His songs have been covered by such diverse artists as Elbow, Jimmy Buffett, Judy Collins, the Skydiggers, Anne Murray, Third World, Chet Atkins, k.d. lang, Barenaked Ladies, Maria Muldaur and the Grateful Dead's Jerry Garcia. -
