He moved to Los Angeles in the early 1970s and recorded his debut solo album,\u00a0<em>The B-52 Band &amp; the Fabulous Skylarks<\/em>\u00a0(1972), a straightforward collection of bluesy rock tunes. In 1975 he received his major break into the industry, touring as a guitarist on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.britannica.com\/biography\/Bob-Dylan-American-musician\">Bob Dylan<\/a>\u2019s\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.britannica.com\/topic\/Rolling-Thunder-Revue\">Rolling Thunder Revue<\/a>\u00a0tour. His second solo album,\u00a0<em>Truth Decay<\/em>\u00a0(1980), shows Burnett\u2019s maturation as an artist, but he found greater success in the production booth than he did as a performer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 1984 Burnett produced the critically acclaimed major-label&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.britannica.com\/dictionary\/debut\">debut<\/a>&nbsp;from&nbsp;Los Lobos,&nbsp;<em>How Will the Wolf Survive?<\/em>, and soon after he worked with&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.britannica.com\/biography\/Elvis-Costello\">Elvis Costello<\/a>, whose&nbsp;<em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.britannica.com\/topic\/King-of-America\">King of America<\/a><\/em>&nbsp;(1986) and&nbsp;<em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.britannica.com\/topic\/Spike-album-by-Costello\">Spike<\/a><\/em>&nbsp;(1989) feature Burnett as both producer and performer. While these and other projects helped to establish Burnett professionally, his work on&nbsp;<em>The Turning<\/em>&nbsp;(1987), an album by Christian pop artist&nbsp;Leslie Phillips, proved significant personally. Burnett and Phillips\u2014who recorded as Sam on later albums\u2014became involved romantically, and the two were married in 1989 (they divorced in 2004).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=https:\/\/www.primorske.si\/2011\/03\/20\/tomaz-pengov-o-starih-in-novih-pesmih-presernu-jez\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/share?url=https:\/\/www.primorske.si\/2011\/03\/20\/tomaz-pengov-o-starih-in-novih-pesmih-presernu-jez\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/shareArticle?mini=true&amp;url\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><\/a>Posted from: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.britannica.com\/biography\/T-Bone-Burnett\">https:\/\/www.britannica.com\/biography\/T-Bone-Burnett<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cYou know, Ronnie Hawkins used to say, \u2018If this show business thing doesn\u2019t work out, by the time I\u2019m 80, I\u2019m gonna look for another line of work\u2019,\u201d said&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/variety.com\/t\/t-bone-burnett\/\">T Bone Burnett<\/a>, getting chatty with an audience in the back room at McCabe\u2019s Guitar Shop in Santa Monica, where he was doing a multi-night stand.
