Jon Langford & His Sadies / Mayors Of The
Moon
At
turns a wildly raucous rampage through the best that Langford and his
tainted country ways have to offer and a softer melodic stroll through
the surf-a-delic beauty that the Sadies create, Mayors is easily
among the best of the Sadies' work, and may as well rank among the best
the Langford has ever offered up.

Buddy Greene / Rufus
His
fret work on Rufus is less about show than functionality, but the
result is a sturdy, rhythmic style borrowing heavily from Merle Travis...Put

Les Honky More Tonkies / Greatest Hits
Over
the past four years, LHMT has been building a fan base of like minded

Ray..., Johnny Cash put on what, even in the face of the Folsom Prison
tapes, had to be one of his best shows ever...

Doc Watson / Elementary Doctor Watson
Each player [from these sessions] is a genius on his own. Together they
are a veritable Ivy League of folk-based acoustic music, and Elementary
is their dissertation.

Luther Wright & The Wrongs / Rebuild The
Wall
Wright and company rework the 1979 Pink Floyd behemoth into a bluegrass/country
outing where banjos and fiddles are as prominent as electric guitars and
synthesizers.

The Demolition String Band / Pulling Up Atlantis
"If you're one of those people who says 'I like everything but country,
'cause it sucks,' then you are a schmuck and you should ignore the Demolition
String Band..."

John Hartford / Hamilton Ironworks
...Hartford, no longer able to play an instrument himself, called out
the names of tunes he wanted to hear, and his friends obliged, serenading
him for hours.

Gillian Welch / Time (The Revelator)
A couple of days after the latest Gillian Welch CD was released, a regular
patron of Laser's Edge dropped by to inquire about the disc. "Is it grim?"...

Nickel Creek / Nickel Creek
"Bluegrass Revivalists," "Acoustic Innovators," "Youthgrass" are just
some of the terms that have been used to describe Nickel Creek over the
past year -- perhaps producer Alison Krauss says it best with, "It's just
Nickel Creek music." Regardless of classification,...
