About This Event
Released in 1979 on Woodstock, New York–based Bearsville Records, Hi is a warm, understated folk-rock album shaped as much by feel and restraint as by songwriting. Though rooted in the East Coast singer-songwriter tradition, the record is deeply informed by Memphis soul, featuring contributions from Willie Mitchell, bassist Leroy Hodges, drummer Gene Chrisman, the Memphis Horns, and background vocal stylings from Erma Shaw.
Produced and engineered by Willie Mitchell during his tenure as Bearsville’s Executive Producer and Director of Memphis Operations, Hi occupies a rare crossroads where folk intimacy meets Southern studio discipline. The album reflects the same musical values Mitchell honed at Hi Records—groove, clarity, and emotional economy—revealing a shared language that transcends genre and geography.
