Chris Isaak... Greek Threatre
Los Angeles, CA. August 26 2009...
Chris Isaak hasn't really thrilled anybody since his 1989 smash, "Wicked Game" (or perhaps since the Herb Rittsdirected video for his 1989 smash, "Wicked Game"), but neither has he disappointed: This Northern California native claims one of the sturdiest songbooks in adult-oriented rock, a deeply crafty catalog of Presley/Orbison/Everly echoes that never sacrifices sexiness at the altar of authenticity. This year Isaak's been busy; in February he launched The Chris Isaak Hour — a Bio Channel chat show — and released Mr. Lucky, his first new studio disc since 2002, with highlights including "We've Got Tomorrow," a kicky rockabilly jam, and "Breaking Apart," a tender Trisha Yearwood duet. Still, don't expect him to sound anything other than perfectly relaxed tonight. Opener Susan Tedeschi sings and plays a mean blues-soul guitar; she and her hubby, Derek Trucks, run what must be the jam-friendliest household in America.
Great video. Chris Isaak has a unique relationship with his band and his audience. His shows are a blast, and your video is a great example of how much he puts into his shows. My wife got to dance on stage with Roley towards the end of the show and she will never forget it. (If you have any video of that, I would love it if you would post that so I could show it to her.) Thanks for posting a reminder of a great night at the GreeK!
