Nick Lowe is the coolest. He would probably disagree with that statement with a sort of self deprecating, light hearted joke only proving further the point at hand. Since the late ‘70s Lowe has been writing songs that have become sort of anthems of rock and roll like “So It...
is the coolest. He would probably disagree with that statement with a sort of self deprecating, light hearted joke only proving further the point at hand.
Lowe describes how historically his approach to making albums in the studio was becoming outdated and too expensive when compared with the more modern way of making albums thesedays. “It took about 20 minutes of us playing before I said 'Look boys, don’t worry about the record. Let’s just treat it as if you’re going to do an instrumental of the songs and I’ll just sing on top and we will see what happens.' That’s when it started getting good then because it sounded like the songs all right but it started to sound like me not with a backing band but it started to sound like another unit,” says Lowe.
“It goes to show another thing about Nick is, he’s got a sense of humor and he's got this confidence that he would go on stage with guys in wrestling masks and that's going way out on a limb,” says Angel. “We had nothing to lose by doing this with Nick but Nick had a lot to lose. He could have looked foolish but he trusted his instincts and he’s got good instincts.”
Due to the logistics of the band, with Lowe living in London and the band based in the United States, the only way for them to record together was making random stops in studios while on tour. Though not ideal, it allowed them to release a series of singles for their fans. Lowe and the bands shared love of classic music shines through and is no doubt a huge part of the glue that holds them together creatively. Where Los Straitjackets shine musically with their rare ability to hold an audience with straight up instrumentals, Lowe’s lyrical genius blends perfectly to create songs that seem to have existed forever.
“From over here we can sort of pick and choose like a smorgasbord our influences together. At least I’m talking about people from my generation, I’m older now you know but that’s how it was.” “It was a bit of an unusual development,” laughs Lowe. “Fantastic though. John and June, who I adored both of them, they were so nice to me because I really was a bit of an idiot when I met Carlene and God knows what they thought about me but I was thrilled by them and they were so kind to me,” says Lowe reminiscing on listening to records with his famous father-in-law and enjoying some wine when the famous couple visited their daughter in London.
