If you like your Bluegrass straight and solid "mountain style", you're most likely going to enjoy this fine 15-track recording by this popular band from southwestern Virginia. They've been at it for a long time and it shows in their singing and playing, led by top flight fiddling and singing from Jeff Michael. Other members of the group include Johnny Williams (guitar), Lynwood Lunsford (banjo), Tommy Sells (mandolin) and Teresa Sells, who plays guitar and joins in with some lovely high harmony vocals. The late bass player Alan Mastin was present on all the tracks of this disc. The title cut is a really neat song that most older fans and musicians will relate to: it's a Dixie & Tom T. Hall song, one in a continuing line of excellent songs that they have given to various Bluegrass artists over the past few years. Anyone who grew up with Martha White and Flatt & Scruggs will get a kick out of this one.
