Reviews:
''Jericho'' is the tenth album by Canadian-American rock group The Band released in 1993 and the first to feature the latter-day configuration of the group.
Coming a full seventeen years after their "farewell concert", it was their first release for the Rhino subsidiary Pyramid Records. Joining original members Levon Helm (drums/mandolin/guitar/vocal), Rick Danko (bass/guitar/vocal) and Garth Hudson (organ/keyboards/horns) were Jim Weider (who had played guitar for the group from the time of their 1983 reformation), Randy Ciarlante (who had joined on drums in 1990) and Richard Bell (who had joined as keyboardist in 1991). Richard Manuel recorded his last recording with The Band on "Country Boy". In addition to this sextet, there are an additional fourteen musicians. Having such a large amount of guests would be commonplace on the latter-day group's albums.
Without Robbie Robertson as lyricist, the group relied on outside sources to supplement their four original tracks. Among those covered were Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, Muddy Waters, Willie Dixon and folksinger Artie Traum.
The painting on the cover is of the house they lived in Saugerties, New York and also which inspired the music on their debut album ''Music From Big Pink'' and in which Bob Dylan and The Band recorded ''The Basement Tapes''. - Wikipedia
