3 out of 5 stars Almost Good,   December 29, 2009

I am a huge fan of Bryan Sutton and about every thing that He does, Sugar Hill sent me this at my request and I listened to it, just doesn't have any magic to it. They also sent me Adam Steffey's "One More For The Road" (Bryan plays on that too), now that is a very good CD, sounds like Union Station, well it basically is, even has Alison Krauss on a couple of songs.

the batch of CDs I bought at Merlefest 2009. Enjoyable from start to finish.


5 out of 5 stars Tasty hot and melodic!   August 18, 2009
Stephen Luteman (Durham, NC United States)
An outstanding recording by one of the finest flat pickers on the planet! On first listen, I thought it was going to be in the "Spacegrass" style but was pleased with the tasty mix of new and old sounds. Favorites include Wonder Valley Gals (who is the mystery banjo player?) and Loretta's Waltz. The duet with Russ Barenburg titled Dark Island has a wonderfully sad feeling, and Le Pont De La Moustache is an excellent nod to Django.

Bryan's partners in crime include some of the finest musicians in acoustic music; Chris Thile, Bela Fleck, Russ, Time O'Brien, Pete Wernick, Nick Forster (Hot Rize) and others. You should buy this CD!



2 out of 5 stars not as good as other albums   July 17, 2009

first I am an ENORMOUS fan of Bryan Sutton. His last 3 were amazing. This has a little too much banjo backup for my taste. I can't hear the guitar because the banjo is racing around (is it Bela Fleck??/ it sounds like him the way it races around with no destination) anyway, it is also short. 10 songs is not alot. I really loved his last few albums, how he took old fiddle tunes and reworked them. I wish he would do that again, with less banjo backup and more fiddle tunes, just my opinion. Still a big fan, but if you haven't bought the last 3, get them.


5 out of 5 stars Country Standard Time reviews Bryan Sutton CD   July 15, 2009
Country Standard Time (Newton Centre, MA)
Bryan Sutton has a well-deserved reputation as a hot flat-pick guitarist. Here he shows he is not limited to that genre. The opening three cuts are contemporary acoustic melodic tunes, then he breaks into a Norman Blake sounding rendition of "Church Street Blues." [...]
