Nice Touch of Old and New
Album Rating: (4 of 5 stars)
Review Comments: Old time country music (Blue Grass) is mixed with Steve's original compositions to create an enjoyable listening experience. Mr. Martin readily and rather modistly admits he isn't one of the great banjo virtuosos but he is competent in his performance. For those of us who refuse to "obtain" free music online purchasing this CD is definitely worth the investment.
Disappointing - Expected More from Steve Martin
Album Rating: (1 of 5 stars)
Review Comments: We have always thought Steve Martin is a great banjo picker and have enjoyed everything we have heard. Perhaps we expected too much. We honestly didn't care for anything on the CD. We were hoping to hear more of a bluegrass type selection and that just isn't what is on this CD. I'm not really sure how to classify the songs, but we don't care for it.
really great
Album Rating: (5 of 5 stars)
Review Comments: The music is charming and smart and feels generally great to listen to. The four vocal songs are great, and the instrumentals are cleverly put together. I really admire Steve Martin for putting this together.
blowing in the wind
Album Rating: (3 of 5 stars)
Review Comments: This was a treat, what a talent - just when I thought I knew all there was about Steve Martin (stand up and film),now pure banjo picking - wow! I loved his comedy and his acting (well much of it) and had never really been a banjo picker devote', but this CD presents a new side not seen before and I'm hooked. The more I listened the more I liked. Can't wait for more.
