Catherine Russell 'He May Be Your Dog But He’s Wearing My Collar' | Live Studio Session

It seems the timing was just right for Catherine Russell’s third KNKX studio session. Her new album, Alone Together, had risen to the top of the jazz charts. Also, the just-ended fund drive had all of us in the mood to celebrate.
The new release is another charming collection of older songs, a few jazz standards and a few songs most folks have never heard before. Including “You Can’t Pull the Wool Over My Eyes,” “I Wonder” and “Is You Is Or Is You Ain’t My Baby,” I thought the connecting line perhaps was a search for truth and human connection. Catherine told me she’s happy to let the listener make whatever connection they like, she’s just singing great music.

Early blues and jazz numbers had a way to communicate things not welcome in "polite circles," and this one is supreme.

I had the pleasure of hearing Catherine sing this song at Keystone Korner in Baltimore recently. Fantastic!

I had to stop the car when I first heard this song. It was SO edifying and more than a little healing. Thank you, Catherine, wherever you fly. Love you.
