Video Interview: Dave Alvin on The Third Mind’s “Spellbinder”
While Dave Alvin is regarded as one of the greats of American roots music, his taste in music and his own music from the Blasters onwards has included hints of his musical eclecticism. Evidently, he always had a fascination with the music that Miles Davis recorded in the ‘70s and the freedom that was given to the musicians in the studio, and he had a shared fantasy with Victor Krummenacher, of Camper Van Beethoven, of making music in a similar vein.
