Chip Taylor, John Platania

During the 60s Chip was one of the most prolific and talented songwriters in the world. ‘Wild Thing’ and ‘Angel of The Morning’ are probably his two best known songs, but other Chip Taylor songs that are ingrained in American music are ‘Try (Just A Little Bit Harder)’ a performance favourite of Janis Joplin, ‘I Can't Let Go’ (The Hollies, Linda Ronstadt), ‘Country Girl, City Man’ (Ike and Tina Turner), ‘Any Way That You Want Me’ (The Troggs, Evie Sands, Juice Newton, Lita Ford) along with many others.

Chip continues to write, record and produce via his own Train Wreck Records, where he hosts Carrie Rodriguez, Kendall Carson and the great guitarist and producer, John Platania (Van Morrison, Randy Newman, Bonnie Raitt and Judy Collins), with whom he appears tonight.
