“Crazy Love” w/ Irma Thomas!

“She gave me love, love, love, love, crazy love.” Richard Gottehrer and Allison Zatarain go deep into “Crazy Love,” written by Van Morrison and re-interpreted by New Orleans icon Irma Thomas. Here both tracks, learn why Irma chose the song, and join Allison and producer Eric Heigle in conversation about the recording, arrangement, and choice of musicians from his New Orleans studio. Resident musicologist Richard Barone sits with Richard G to discuss song origin and to contemplate the impact of keeping the gender intact when a woman sings a male-driven song. Allison and Rebecca Morehiser muse about the “lady on the cover.” Engineer Alonzo Vargas is in the mix about adding pianist Davelle Williams to the track in the Orchard Studio.
