 Danny McCloskey interview with Felix Cavaliere on the release of 'Midnight Flyer' with Steve Cropper.
Steve Cropper and Felix Cavaliere are rock’n’roll legends. Steve was one of the builders of the Stax sound in the 1960’s as a guitarist for Booker T & The M.G.’s and co-writer for many classic songs by artists such as Otis Redding (‘Sittin’ on the Dock of the Bay’), Eddie Floyd (‘Knock on Wood’) and Wilson Pickett (‘In The Midnight Hour’). Felix was ground zero for blue-eyed soul as the voice of The Rascals. They have joined forces for a second time on their recent release ‘Midnight Flyer’.

Yarn’s latest release, ‘Come on In,’ is the best of three exceptionally good records that finds the band melding into one of the most formidable forces in jam-based roots / Americana music. Front man and founder Blake Christiana still has one of the most versatile and accomplished surrounding casts in the business; Trevor MacArthur on rhythm guitar and vocals, Andrew Hendryx on mandolin, harmonica and the stalwart rhythm section of Rick Bugel on bass and new drummer Robert Bonhomme but the addition of ace axe-man Rod Hohl has broadened the YARN sound to include a more edgy side. It’s still sweet mountain-country rock it just has a Rolling Stones alter ego.
