Album Reviews

absolute recommendation

 Album Rating: (5 of 5 stars)

Review Comments: If you like American classical folk music, this is a recommendation without restraint. Four Young ladies with lots of esprit who delight in the music they play and who have a lot of experience in solo play as in playing together in this band. At the same time without attitude or posture. Assembled in a high-quality recording! Just visit their website to learn more.

I love this CD.

 Album Rating: (5 of 5 stars)

Review Comments: I purchased it about two weeks ago and listen to it several times a day. A great mix of old and new. Rayna Gellert's fiddle playing is awsome and I'm glad they includes tunings in the liner notes as I am an aspiring fiddler. I hope to see the G'earls in person one day. I also have their the Waterloo, Tennessee CD which is also great. If you like old time and bluegrass, these are good choices.

Every CD is worth every penny

 Album Rating: (4 of 5 stars)

Review Comments: The inspirational anthem "Warfare" is the cut that I always set on "repeat" for at least 10 times every time I play this CD. It and "Take These Chains" make it worth every penny. Unexpectedly, I was astonished to realize it is conceivable to think that during this nation's slavery era (before it was abolished), the captives whose masters were never cruel COULD HAVE BEEN patting their shackled feet when they heard fiddles playing jigs and folks square-dancing in the mansions. Those slaves who ultimately gained freedom endured only through faith, hope and music. Thanks, Uncle Earl.

wonderful folk

 Album Rating: (5 of 5 stars)

Review Comments: it is the kind of music I love, especially with the beautiful female vocals, it makes me as happy to listen to as Mike Oldfields moonlight shadow back in the 80's. It's also a good loader for my own creative batteries, working as a painter and a writer.

A beautiful slice of Americana pie

 Album Rating: (5 of 5 stars)

Review Comments: A very impressive album featuring the fiddle of Rayna. One of the strongest old-time groups out, they really have an authentic, tight sound that is unlike most other groups that play old-time. I saw them live and they are just as good in person as on record.
