Cahoots is the fourth studio album by Canadian/American rock group the Band. It was released in 1971 to mixed reviews, and was their last album of original material for four years. The album's front cover was painted by New York artist/illustrator Gilbert Stone, while the back cover features a photograph portrait of the group by Richard Avedon. The album features guest vocals from Van Morrison. Libby Titus, the partner of drummer Levon Helm and mother of their daughter Amy Helm, also contributed uncredited backing vocals to "The River Hymn", the first time a woman appeared on a Band album.[9][10]

Rolling Stone critic Jon Landau described the mood of the album as being "filled with a 'tinge of extinction.'"[11]

In 2021, a "50th Anniversary" edition of the album was released containing a remix of the original tracks plus outtakes and a partial concert recording from the Olympia Theatre, Paris in May 1971.[12]

[de] Cahoots (Album)

Cahoots ist das vierte Studioalbum der kanadischen Folk- und Country-Rock-Gruppe The Band. Es erschien am 15. September 1971 auf dem Label Capitol Records. Die Kritik äußerte recht unterschiedliche Ansichten über die Qualität des Albums, in der Regel wird Cahoots aber als eines der schwächeren Alben der Band angesehen. Entsprechend fielen die Chartplatzierungen vergleichsweise enttäuschend aus. In den US-amerikanischen Billboard-Charts machte das Album Platz 21, in Großbritannien erreichte es nicht die Top 40.

[es] Cahoots

Cahoots —en español: Confabulación— es el cuarto álbum de estudio del grupo canadiense de rock The Band, publicado por la compañía discográfica Capitol Records en septiembre de 1971.[6] El álbum, el primero del grupo grabado en los Bearsville Studios de Woodstock, marcó un cambio musical al incluir por primera vez una sección de vientos en canciones como «Life is a Carnival», una técnica repetida en trabajos posteriores como Rock of Ages y The Last Waltz.[7] Debido a la falta de disponibilidad de horarios en Bearsville, el grupo se vio obligado a modificar sus patrones habituales de grabación, normalmente sujeta a horarios más laxos y menos restrictivos.[8] Como resultado, las sesiones fueron tensas y originaron problemas internos que culminaron cinco años después en su disolución.[9][10]
