Cabin Fever (Lenny Breau album)

Cabin Fever is an album by Canadian jazz guitarist Lenny Breau that was released in 1997.

[1] Breau had continual drug problems from the mid-1960s,[2] which he only managed to get under control during the last years of his life.

[1] This issue, on noted Canadian rock musician Randy Bachman's Guitarchives label, includes an interview with McDonald discussing the background of the recordings.

[1] Others close to Breau dispute the location and claim these are recordings made in the home studios of Don Thompson and Gary Binstead in Toronto, Canada.

[3] Writing for Allmusic, critic Ken Dryden wrote in his review: "The lack of formal studio post-production adds to the appeal of this disc because the listener gets the feeling of being Breau's sole audience, so an occasional warmup passage or bit of conversation don't prove to be distracting... this CD is an excellent place to start an exploration of his brilliant musicianship.
