Benson, the fine long-time mandolinist for IIIrd Tyme Out, has a well-played, 12-track instrumental album, consisting totally of his own original tunes. Almost all the pieces tend to the modern side, and the album in general reminds you of one of Pinecastle's annual "Bluegrass 2000" type recordings, with pickers like Scott Vestal, Jeff Autry, Ron Stewart and Rob Ickes, etc. TUCKER, TILLERY COVE, ANXIOUS MOLLY, RED TOMMY, etc.
