I’ll Take Care of You

Released

With another varied backing crew, once again with Mike Johnson but also many Screaming Trees bandmates past and present as well as Los Lobos member Steve Berlin, Soundgarden’s Ben Shepherd and keyboardist/producer Martin Feveyear, in 1999 Mark Lanegan released his first collection of covers, I’ll Take Care of You. By then Lanegan’s vocals had reached a new depth and richness, and in tackling tracks by everyone from Tim Hardin and Brook Benton to Buck Owens and Jeffrey Lee Pierce he delivered commanding, deeply felt interpretations.
