4 - Sweet up and Down - Dave Matthews Band DMB - Lillywhite Sessions - Track 04 - Sweet up and Down

(Sweet up and Down)The Lillywhite Sessions (LWS) is a collection of songs recorded by Dave Matthews Band in 1999 and 2000 and produced by Steve Lillywhite. The songs, recorded by the band as a follow-up to their 1998 album Before These Crowded Streets, were ultimately scrapped by the band. This is frequently attributed to pressure from RCA executives to wrap up the sessions and release an overdue (per contract), upbeat album (the LWS were considered on the darker side by RCA).[by whom?] Upon abandoning the album-in-progress, Dave Matthews was assigned to work with producer Glen Ballard who, in association with Matthews, wrote the album Everyday in just ten days. This contrasted with the band's prior style of writing, which included significant collaboration between the band members in the studio. The recordings later emerged on the internet shortly after the release of Everyday, and created controversy among fans as well as the music industry, which was early in its campaign to curb illegal file downloads. The Lillywhite Sessions were never released.

Steve Lillywhite and DMB back again. Studio time in January 2012.

@incyourbus1 Steve Lillywhite produced Under the Table and Dreaming, Crash, Before These Crowded Streets, and the practically-completed album now known as The Lillywhite Sessions, which was aborted by Matthews and the band. Imo, it was the culmination of the band's work, and possibly the best album that was never released....by whomever. Roi passed in 2008 and the band's sound was forever changed, but the band never quite found their groove in the studio like they did with Steve Lillywhite
