The Lincvolt Years : An Intro by Haskell Wexler - The Electric 1959 Lincoln Continental

When we were recording the ‘Monsanto Years’ in 2015, I met Haskell Wexler, the legendary film maker and ace cameraman/interviewer. He came out to the sessions and shot Promise of the Real and I recording our first album together. We were just getting to know one another. You can view some of that in ‘The Monsanto Years’. We were recording in Teatro, an old Oxnard Theater.

Haskell came in and just started shooting, talking to everyone and being himself. I have never seen anyone like him. One day we were visitng him in Santa Monica at his office and he came out to the car. As soon as he laid eyes on it, he had to do something with the car, so that day and part of another one he interviewed me and asked all about Lincvolt.
