“A midnight run from Como, Mississippi to Bogalusa, Louisiana to visit the reclusive Jasper Collins, whose world is everything Wilson Pickett,” this was the break that Rick Shaffer needed while writing and recording Sleeping Dog.
Sleeping Dog is the twelfth album that solo artist Rick Shaffer added to his long list of works he has created over more than two decades.
