Loudon wainwright iii therapy


Therapy is a 1989 album by Loudon Wainwright III. It followed a three-year hiatus, during which Wainwright moved from England (where he had recorded his previous two albums) back to the USA. Compared with those two, 'Therapy' was not well received, but outstanding tracks have subsequently appeared on live albums (e.g. 'Thanksgiving' on Career Moves.

This Song Don't Have A Video

The only single from Therapy, "T.S.D.H.A.V.", actually did have one, featuring Wainwright singing the song in an easy chair; he gets up from the chair for a moment to answer the telephone (a PLEASE STAND BY graphic appears on the screen). It still airs occasionally on VH-1 Classic.

A live version of "T.S.D.H.A.V." can be found on the b-side of Wainwright's one-off single "If Jesse Don't Like It", which was also recorded before an audience.
