It had felt like we would be playing together forever. For a while it was hard to imagine playing in my own band again, let alone one where I\u2019m the frontman. Tom was always my beacon. But everything I\u2019ve been doing since Tom passed, including this album with The Dirty Knobs, is in the spirit of honoring what we did together.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Wreckless Abandon features contributions from Chris Stapleton and Heartbreakers keyboardist Benmont Tench. It was produced by George Drakoulias and the artwork was created by Plastic Ono Band bassist Klaus Voormann. They planned on releasing this album a while back, but Campbell\u2019s unexpected invitation to join Fleetwood Mac delayed their plans.<\/p>\n<div class=\"pmc-contextual-player\">\n<h3> Popular on Rolling Stone <\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The group is playing in Santa Barbara, California, on January 24th and 25th and will launch an American tour on March 10th.
