I bought a GREAT cd the other day.

Great cd. I actually found my copy in a used cd store. nobody knew her and I grabbed it...Do you have her 98 release? "Hell Among the Yearlings? Excellent...Not for everyone of course. But man, she can cut you to the quik when she's on....Cheers, Bluenose

Thanks for the recommendation. I love good bluegrass, but don't have a local radio outlet, so it's tough to find good new stuff. For those interested, www.cdnow.com has samples from tracks on both cds you can hear. Of the two, I prefer the Revival cd, the Hell Among The Yearlings seems a little too sedate for my tastes, but that's just me.

Anyone interested should also check out Kasey Chambers cd "Captain". It has really grown on me - especially the title track, "These Pines", and "Don't Go". Title track was recently used as background music in an episode of The Sopranos, of all places! I'd be interested in your opinion of this cd.

Odd. I never thought of Gillian Welch's music as Bluegrass. Just sort of American, maybe country. Her revival cd is one of my all time favorite all-originals, along with Iris Dement's Infamous Angel and Lucinda Williams's Lucinda Williams.
