Now regarded as one of the "super groups" of Bluegrass, the IIIrd Tyme Out broke on the scene in 1991 with a great band that featured the wonderful lead singing of Russell Moore, good material & great arrangements, and three superb pickers in Terry Baucom (banjo), Alan Bibey (mandolin) and Mike Hartgrove (fiddle). The three albums they cut for Rebel are all gems, and the very best of this material has been selected for this wonderful budget release. Their beautiful rendition of the title song may be one of the best Bluegrass recordings of the past two decades, and their treatment of MOUNDSVILLE PEN and GRANDPA'S MANDOLIN, along with 4 great gospel cuts make this a very special collection. This is contemporary Bluegrass at its best! LITTLE BLACK TRAIN, WHEN I CROSS OVER JORDAN, THANKS A LOT, etc.
