The Band's Rick Danko, Norwegian singer/songwriter and guitarist Jonas Fjeld
and legendary singer/songwriter Eric Andersen made this seamless album
of beautiful, earthy songs a winner of the Spellemans Pris, Norway's
'Grammy' Award. D/F/A brings together a trio of gifted
singer/songwriters on both new material and favorites gathered from
their extensive repertoires

Danko/Fjeld/Andersen is a collaboration in the
fullest sense of the word, with each musician bringing
high credentials as singer, songwriter, and solo
performer. Andersen has made 18 albums, and his
songs have been covered by a diverse bunch of
performers including the Grateful Dead, Fairport
Convention, Rick Nelson and Linda Ronstadt. Fjeld, a
major figure in his native Norway, has 12 albums to his
credit, ranging from acoustic solo performances to
full-scale electric excursions. In 1990 his collaboration
with poet Ole Paus earned him a gold record in
Norway.

Eric was also a talented painter, and it was this that became the center of his creative life. Bob Dylan absorbed much of Eric's encyclopedic knowledge of American folk, country and blues, and one of Eric's LPs is in the cover photograph of Bob's 'Bringing It All Back Home' album. Dylan once wrote of Eric von Schmidt, "For here is a man who can sing the bird off the wire and the rubber off the tire. He can separate the men from the boys and the note from the noise. The bridle from the saddle and the cow from the cattle. He can play the tune of the moon. The why of the sky and the commotion from the ocean. Yes he can."

Window of my eyes
De single "Window of my eyes" komt van de lp ,,Thrippin thru a midnight Blues,,. Het stond tien weken in de Nederlandse Top 40 met als hoogste notering de tiende plaats. "Window of my eyes" zou het meest succesvolle nummer van Cuby and the Blizzards worden, vertegenwoordigd in alle muziekoverzichten van de laatste 40 jaar. Harry Muskee vindt het nog steeds z’n mooiste nummer. Uit liefdesverdriet ontstaan in de boerderij in Grollo, met een monumentale gitaarsolo van Eelco Gelling op z’n Gibson Les Paul.

Beekman,Herman Brood.Dit is mijn favoriete C+B bezetting.Vele malen in
deze samenstelling zien spelen ,toen Herman en later Eelco de band
verlieten was het wat mij betreft wel een beetje over.Natuurlijk bleven
we Harry en zijn maten wel volgen ,maar de chemie was er niet meer.
Tot zo,n jaar of vijftien geleden,een feesttent op de markt in
Middelburg.C+B traden er op,en wat een concert!Een zeer strakke band,een
geweldige gitarist Erwin, en zangwer Harry in topvorm ,het was er weer
helemaal!
