Customer Reviews:

old time greatness.......2004-03-25

This album is one of the best albums released that I can remember. The music provides strong melodies in the fashion of old fiddle tunes, yet has a contemporary feel. Fans of Hot Rize, YMSB and the Big Wu will certainly enjoy this great album.

Kick bum songwriting and singing!.......2004-03-17

I think this CD is totally one of the best things that has ever come out of either of these musicians. Jeff's singing and songwriting is top notch as ever as is Chris's. Chris vocal's are reminicent of an old country style somewhere where Hank Williams Jr. meets Jimmy Rodgers meets Willie Nelson. I highly recommend this to anybody who digs Folk Music, Old Time County, Yonder and The Big Wu.
