III/IV
In 2007 Ryan Adams and the Cardinals entered Electric Lady recording studios on 8th street in NYC and went in for a session intended to last two weeks. Six months and over 60 tracks later, they emerged with the album Easy Tiger. But it was only a glimpse into the depth of the work the band had undertaken and the vast amount of material that was recorded. As the sessions wound around into the deep winter months a double album emerged, a rock record that felt more like a hybrid of all the records that the band had mutually consumed as kids... from influences as wide as KISS and The Cars. Originally hidden away in the vault while the band hit the road to support Easy Tiger, and now for the first time here in its entirety is the Cardinals second double-album concept rock opera about the 80's, ninjas, cigarettes, sex, and pizza. Enjoy volume III/IV, by Ryan Adams and The Cardinals, from the turning point in the classic line up of the band featuring.... Catherine Popper on bass (her last with the band), Neal Casal on guitar and vocals (his first with the band) Brad Pemberton on the drums, Jon Graboff on the Steel Guitar (as well as a few other things) and Jamie The Candyman Candiloro on piano and synths, here producing again as well.
