I'll Take Care of You

I'll Take Care of You is the fourth solo album by former Screaming Trees vocalist Mark Lanegan. This album consists of cover songs.

It features Lanegan's interpretation of songs from a wide variety of songwriters, including Tim Rose, Tim Hardin, Booker T. Jones, and Buck Owens. Perhaps the most moving song in the collection is "Carry Home," which was written by the late Jeffrey Lee Pierce of The Gun Club (Lanegan would co-write "Kimiko's Dream House" with Pierce, which would appear on his next album Field Songs.)

I'll Take Care Of You also includes the traditional song "Little Sadie."

A review from NME said: "it's probably his finest, most tenderly-delivered work to date."

Pitchfork Medias Neil Lieberman said this about the album: "in this collection, Lanegan's managed to tug on the timeless threads that hold the patchwork of American music together. And that's certainly something to consider"

    Life at the greatest and best is but a froward child, that must be humoured and coaxed a little till it falls asleep, and then all the care is over.
