Adam Harvey - The Nashville Tapes CD

Adam Harvey - The Nashville Tapes CD

For celebrated entertainer and country music purist Adam Harvey, one musical era stands out head, hat and shoulders above all the rest: Nashvilles seminal 1970s Golden Age. Fulfilling a lifelong dream, Adam jetted off to the bright lights of the immortal Music City to record masterful 10th studio album The Nashville Tapes, armed with a brace of new songs couched in the classic country sounds that most capture his imagination.

Perhaps more than any of Adams stellar solo releases to date, The Nashville Tapes is a sweeping, personal celebration of the sounds that defined a generation: from the legendary outlaws to the first wave of global country megastars.

In making The Nashville Tapes, Adam and another longtime mate, producer Nash Chambers, assembled a crack team of Music Citys finest and most sought-after session players to assist in realising the album.

Nash and I have been talking about recording an album together for as long as weve known one another, Adam relates. Hes well known for the stuff hes done for Kasey, and hes a mad, passionate traditional country fan. It felt like a really good fit to go and work there with him. Someone who knows and loves that classic 70s country.

A deeply personal, powerfully reverent release not years but decades in the making, The Nashville Tapes is the masterwork of an all-time Australian country music legend.
