Price: $45.00
Ellen Johnson selected to be a special guest vocalist with Dan Hicks and the Hot Licks.
The original Dan Hicks and the Hot Licks recorded five ground-breaking and Billboard-charting records for the Columbia, Blue Thumb and Warner Bros. labels. They toured worldwide and Dan appeared on the cover of Rolling Stone Magazine three times.
The newest incarnation of DH & HL released the wildly successful "Beatin´ the Heat" in 2000, featuring collaborations with Bette Midler, Elvis Costello, Tom Waits, Rickie Lee Jones and Brian Setzer. USA Today called it "one of the blessings of the new millenium." That release was followed by the live cd "Alive & Lickin" in 2001, and the late 2003 cd/dvd "Dan Hicks and The Hot Licks Featuring An All Star Cast of Friends" That project reunited Hicks with virtually every musician he has ever played and recorded with. Both Mojo and Downbeat Magazines rated it "Four Stars...one of the best cds of ´04." 2005 brought the newest studio release "Selected Shorts" featuring special guests Willie Nelson, Jimmy Buffett, Gibby Haynes, Jim Keltner and Van Dyke Parks. Widely touted as the band´s best cd yet -- The New Yorker Magazine remarked "As great as his early masterpiece "Where´s the Money?"... truly superb."
