iTunes Review
The owner of one of the most American voices you're ever likely to hear also has acres of musical experience behind him. Levon Helm was an Arkansas boy who had barely become a man before music whisked him off to a life touring behind Bob Dylan and ultimately becoming the anchor behind the Band — one of the best bands ever to bubble up out of the soil of North America. Now he returns with Electric Dirt, follow-up to the successful Dirt Farmer of 2007. His voice is weathered but iron-strong and he's brought together a group which obviously shares his love of traditional folk, New Orleans shuffle, boogie blues, and soulful country. Tackling songs by the Stanley Brothers, the Staple Singers, Randy Newman, and Muddy Waters — and knocking them out with pride and joy — the album is resolute triumph.

It's all you need
by ko-reyI don't know about everyone else but, Levon Helm is providing this fifty year old rock-n-roller with music that just seems to fit exactly right for me. I caught his performance on PBS and I've been hooked ever since. I'm so sorry to hear that he is having medical problems. Please remember him in your prayers. Buy this album. You will not be disappointed.

by Uncle BoazIt is a cause for celebration that people are still making and recording music like this in 2009. Forget lables like Americana or Roots Rock--this is just great music making. As much as I enjoy Levon Helm's voice, I think it is his drumming that is the key here. I don't know if anyone else can play like this. It all feels great!
Love Levon
by JA GrayOutstanding, please Lord let his vocal cords hold out a little longer. This album is a perfect follow up to DIrt Farmer.
