About
Of how many artists can it be said that they’re still getting better, 33 years into their recording career? Colin Linden can certainly be considered a member of that select club, based on From the Water, the 11th solo album in a storied career that has also featured his work on literally hundreds of other records. At last count, the total number of albums on which he has played stood at over 300, while at least 70 albums bear the “Produced by Colin Linden” credit.
Linden is a genuine Renaissance man of roots music. He’s a singer and songwriter of great skill, an in-demand and prolific record producer (Bruce Cockburn, Tom Wilson, Colin James), a sideman to the stars as guitarist for the likes of Bruce Cockburn, Emmylou Harris, and Robert Plant and Alison Krauss, and, for the past decade, a member of the highly successful trio Blackie and the Rodeo Kings.
