Ian
McLagan Says "Never"
In December of 2007
Ian 'Mac' McLagan and Glyn Johns, his old pal
from Small Faces and Faces days, met at Sphere Studios in London
to mix and master Ian McLagan's beautiful and emotionally raw
CD, Never Say Never. The self produced and directed
album features McLagan's award winning Bump Band:
'Scrappy' Jud Newcomb, Don Harvey and Mark Andes, and includes
all original songs written by one of the best-loved musicians
of our time. Patty Griffin graces Never Say
Never with her soulful vocals and she and the Tosca
Strings can be heard on the final track, the heart wrenching
When The Crying Is Over. McLagan recorded and produced
Never Say Never at The Doghouse Studios in Manor, Texas, and recorded
Where Angels Hide on the Steinway in The Edythe Bates
Old Chapel at The International Festival-Institute in Round Top,
Texas.
Never Say Never was released by 00:02:59
Records (US/Canada) and Proper
Records (UK/Europe). It's also available at CDBaby.com,
iTunes,
and Amazon.com.

" Never Say Never mixes mischief and heartbreak, dancing
on the bar and crying in your beer, in perfect proportion."
Bill Flanagan, CBS Sunday Morning
"Sizzling Platter of the Year!"
Jeffrey Morgan, Creem Magazine & Detroit Metro Times
" Pub rock’s answer to Blood On The Tracks"
-Mojo Magazine
“ You can’t fake the kind of soul Mac’s got.
He’s lived every fun-loving, glorious and painful note of
it, and to me, that’s what makes his music the thing of beauty
and strength that it is. We are so lucky to have it in our midst.”
-Patty Griffin
