Love always. Love forever. Love until the end of time. The Great Cosmic Playlist testifies to the endurance of an emotion easy to conjure but hard to maintain. For Larry Campbell and Teresa Williams, who have been coupled since 1986, love is more than a pop song; they are the bards of long-term commitment.
Larry knew Teresa was the one when he first saw her in a Manhattan rehearsal studio. Teresa, fresh from Peckerwood Point, TN, was pulled into a singing contest, and Larry, a New York City native with a growing reputation for his virtuosity on any stringed instrument, was brought in to play pedal steel guitar. Their shared musical sensibility grew as they played together, deepening their bond.
Their fourth album, All This Time, reflects their journey, especially through the hardships of the pandemic. Teresa nursed her father in Tennessee while Larry battled Covid alone in Woodstock. "Teresa pulled me through," Larry says. This album, filled with love letters sprouted in a harsh spring, reveals their resilient bond. "When you told me that you need me/ After all we’ve been through/ I still think about the love we have to give/ I think about you.
