How to Become Clairvoyant by Robbie Robertson

How to Become Clairvoyant, Robbie Robertson's fifth solo release, came out on 429 Records on April 5, 2011, with Marius de Vries producing, and the former guitarist and chief songwriter of the Band brought a lot of friends. The guest list reads like a guitar summit: Eric Clapton on most of the record, plus Steve Winwood, Tom Morello, Robert Randolph, Rocco DeLuca, Angela McCluskey and Taylor Goldsmith of Dawes, with Trent Reznor adding textures to "Madame X".

Pino Palladino on bass, Martin Pradler on keys and Ian Thomas on drums lock down most songs with a slow, smoky groove, and Robertson's guitar snakes through the middle. He took "He Don't Live Here No More" to Late Show with David Letterman and The View with Dawes backing him. Reviews were generally positive, and it reached No. 13 on the Billboard 200.
