Yet another acoustic masterpiece produced by Ron Stewart - one of the most talented musicians on the planet in my humble opinion.

Artists:

Banjo: John Lawless on all tracks, playing a Huber Lancaster Model banjo

Mandolin: Alan Bibey & Herschel Sizemore

Guitar: Tony Collins, Kenny Smith, and Tim Stafford

Fiddle: Ron Stewart

Dobro: Rob Ickes

Bass: Greg Honeycutt

Warren Amberson, Kelly Green, Bill Smith and Dewey Peters contribute vocals, guitar and mandolin in various lineups on 3 tunes.

Out of the 13 cuts on this project, 10 are original instrumentals penned by AcuTab President, John Lawless. Each tune includes entertaining and educational liner notes from John detailing the song's respective history.

This project has "something for everyone". Great singing, rock solid rhythm, superior musicianship and a keen sense of musical taste. Full band instrumentals, a "simple" banjo/fiddle and banjo/dobro tune, a waltz........plus, a good mix of tempos and stylistic variance.

Do your music and yourself a favor; stop by the recently opened establishment where top-notch Acoustic Music can be found: John Lawless' own, "Five and Dime".
