Jeff Bridges recently spoke about his album Slow Magic: 1977-1978, a compilation of recordings from his impromptu jam sessions in the late '70s. Initially considered rough, these tapes have been well-received and reflect a unique dreamy, doo-wop sound. Bridges reminisces about working with prominent artists, including Burgess Meredith and Bob Dylan, highlighting how music often intersects with his acting. He also hints at future projects and expresses a relaxed approach to music creation, embracing spontaneity in his artistic journey.
It was rough, filled with clams," Bridges laughs of those once-lost tapes. "But they loved it. ... dreamy, doo-wop-adjacent sound that feels magical nearly 50 years later.
Bridges reflects on working with legends like Burgess Meredith and how songwriting often intersects with his acting career.
He knocked on my trailer and said, 'You wanna pick?' My hands were shaking." Bridges reminisces about jamming with Bob Dylan.
I don't know what's next," he says. "I just pick it up, see what happens."
