Some Great Tunes

 Album Rating: (4 of 5 stars)

Review Comments: The performances on this CD are great. The only beef I have is the CD is so short. It's too bad hey didn't record more tunes.

Two Too Much - Skaggs & Rice Were Meant to Collaborate

 Album Rating: (5 of 5 stars)

Review Comments: If you like bluegrass or just great country music, you must get this CD. Each man is a respected master of his instrument - Skaggs on the mandolin and Rice on the guitar. Together, that mastery rises to a new place. With nothing else but the two of them and their instruments, this music expands to a very big place. And, their voices blend beautifully - with Tony's rich baritone and Ricky's crystal tenor. Track #3 is my favorite and provides some of the richest guitar work I've ever heard. But every track is great, including an acapella duet.

Another 5-star review

 Album Rating: (5 of 5 stars)

Review Comments: Perfectly wonderful.

Sounds at least as good as it did in the 80's.

Back To Basics

 Album Rating: (5 of 5 stars)

Review Comments:
As one who has been critical of Tony Rice's later work (I've used the phrase "bluegrass-lite"), let me say that this is a gem. Tony and Ricky - both undisputed virtuosos - put their heart and soul into the music that they grew up with. Simple, to the point and spactacular. Buy it!!

Alpha and Omega

 Album Rating: (5 of 5 stars)

Review Comments: This is the simplicity of honest traditional acoustic music done by two masters of their instruments, who by the way harmonize like old brother teams.
