LUTHER WRIGHT & THE WRONGS [2001] Rebuild The Wall


Rebuild The Wall is a 2001 album by Canadian alternative country band Luther Wright & The Wrongs. The album is a cover of Pink Floyd's progressive rock classic The Wall, re-imagining each track as a bluegrass country song. Guests include Sarah Harmer and Carolyn Mark.

Music critic Robert Kaups, writing for Allmusic, suggested "music fans with more open (and less cynical) minds may well find that this prog-bluegrass fusion works better than it should."

For over twenty years, these great C&W songs cooked in the stew pot of Rock 'n' Roll. That is, until Sheriff Luther and his deputies The Wrongs hit town to engineer the biggest country/bluegrass rescue operation in human history! Sure it was dangerous. But good songs is good songs and there was no stopping these cowpunks once the idea took root.

So now for your listening pleasure, Pink Floyd’s "The Wall", re-recorded by the talented and ruthlessly handsome Luther Wright & The Wrongs. Led by guitarist/vocalist Luther Wright, The Wrongs are powered by the fabulous Cam Giroux on drums/vocals, Sean Kelly on bass/vocals, Dan Curtis on lead electric and acoustic guitars, banjo, mandolin/vocals and Olesh Maximew rounding things out on pedal steel. Part-time Wrong Jason Mercer (bassist for Ani Difranco) plays all those fast banjo bits that take this baby over the top!
