Episode 32 – Van Lear Rose

What this episode covers

If this ain't a podcast, then tell me what is! Uh huh, it's time for our country women trilogy to come to a close with a special spotlight episode on Jack White and Loretta Lynn's collaboration: 2004's Van Lear Rose LP. While this marks her first effort with White, this album is the 39th LP release from Loretta Lynn over her 50+ year career, and stands as her most successful crossover album ever released. With a timeless, effortless country vocal and stirring, energetic guitar, Van Lear Rose boasts a number of highlights including Portland, Oregon, Miss Being Mrs., Have Mercy and Little Red Shoes to name but a few -- and we cover it all from inception to release! Also joining us for this special Mother's Day Third Woman segment is our mom Elizabeth Kaminski, who tells her own musical tale and patiently supports our antics. This'll be one podcast to drink by the pitcher and not by the glass, uh huh!*Disclaimer: In light of recent events, the Third Men Podcast would like to wish a speedy recovery to Loretta Lynn who was hospitalized following a stroke on May 4th. Though she is expected to make a full recovery, all our best goes out to Loretta and her family during this time. This podcast was recorded prior to the events of May 4th - MGMT*<br /><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
