A couple of years after the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band's string of country hits ended, the band returned to its roots to record this appropriately titled collection of original material. Most of the songs are very good, and the sound is refreshingly unadorned with any concessions to the soundalike country mainstream. Because the NDGB was among the many fine artists swept aside by the faceless hat acts and young country babes birthed by the Garth era, Acoustic never found a sizable audience. However, this blend of acoustic guitars, mandolin, dobro, harmonica, accordion, washboard, and beautiful vocal harmonies delivers a bevy of country/folk delights. ~ Jim Newsom

John Mayall & The Bluesbreakers Blues Breakers CD  (1966) Gold

Acoustic album
CD $19.35  Top 100
John Mayall & The Bluesbreakers: John Mayall (vocals, piano, organ, harmonica); Eric Clapton (vocals, guitar); John McVie (bass); Hughie Flint (drums). Includes original release liner notes by Neil Slaven & reissue liner notes by Paul Trynka. 1966's BLUESBREAKERS WITH ERIC CLAPTON is full of portent, as some of its participants would become superstars after its release. Future Cream guitarist Eric Clapton was highly rated enough in the UK blues-rock scene to score second billing, but it wasn't until this recording that he'd had the opportunity to truly stretch out in the studio and show off his awesome soloing skills. Clapton's earlier stint in the Yardbirds had found his ideas largely shouted down by pop-oriented producer/manager Giorgio Gomelsky, but here kindred spirit/producer Mike Vernon simply let Clapton play as he wished. The sympathetic rhythm section of Hughie Flint and future Fleetwood Mac founder John ...

Alan Jackson Let It Be Christmas CD  (2002)

Acoustic CD music
CD $10.39  5 stars Top 500 Audio Samples
Unlike HONKY TONK CHRISTMAS, Alan Jackson's fine 1993 holiday album, LET IT BE CHRISTMAS sticks exclusively to the chestnuts. Though Jackson has built a career as one of country music's premier good 'ol boy neo-honky tonkers, here he employs heavily orchestrated arrangements more characteristic of Sinatra than Skynyrd. The setting reveals him to be a highly adaptable and technically superior vocalist, and the music is gorgeous. Though longtime fans shouldn't expect Jackson's usual high-energy twang fest, listeners looking for soothing background music with a country flair will find LET IT BE CHRISTMAS perfect for any holiday celebration. Recorded at The Castle, Franklin, Tennessee; The Sound Station, Nashville, Tennessee; McLear Digital, Toronto, Canada; Henson Studios, Hollywood, California. Personnel: Bruce Watkins, Mark Fain (acoustic guitar); Brent Mason (electric guitar); Erica Goodman (harp); Matt Rollings (piano); Glenn Worf (electric bass); Eddie Bayers (drums); Karen Harper, Cassie Miller, ...

Lyle Lovett Natural Forces CD  (2009)

Acoustic songs
CD $12.09  4 stars Top 500 Audio Samples
Retreating to generally quieter territory after the somewhat splashy IT'S NOT BIG IT'S LARGE, Lyle Lovett also backs away from original tunes on NATURAL FORCES, choosing to devote the bulk of the 11-track album to other writers. Covers are common for Lovett, but not since 1998's STEP INSIDE THIS HOUSE has he spent so much time singing other's songs, and he revisits some of the same composers as before, picking tunes from Townes Van Zandt and Vince Bell, while co-writing "It's Rock and Roll" with Robert Earl Keen. As before, Lyle gravitates toward gentle, moody songs, with Tommy Elskes' slyly sarcastic blues, "Bohemia," being the liveliest of the bunch, opting to ...
Keep On Loving You

Reba Mcentire Keep On Loving You CD  (2009) Enhanced CD

Acoustic album
CD $15.49  5 stars Top 500 Audio Samples
KEEP ON LOVING YOU is contemporary country legend Reba McEntire's debut recording on the semi-independent Valory Music Company label's Starstruck imprint. Despite its release on an indie, the production and approach are anything but.. The cream of country music's current chart crop wrote its 13 songs, and it's a radio-friendly collection showcasing McEntire's adaptability. The title track, a midtempo ballad saturated in compressed guitars, Hammond B-3, and a chorus of fiddles, reveals that McEntire is a belter who can hang with the best of them. The set opener (and its first single), "Strange," with its acoustic guitars, mandolin, and fiddle intros, is like something from the backyard until about 20 seconds in, when a wall of guitars à la John Rich arrives and Reba's vocal spits out lyrics about a wrecked love affair. "I Want a Cowboy" and "Pink Guitar" sound more like McEntire is being backed by the Charlie Daniels Band circa 1979 than her own touring unit. "She's Turning 50 Today" is a trademark McEntire-delivered ballad about a woman who has been abandoned by her husband and decides to leave the wreckage of her life behind. It's the kind of bittersweet power ballad that the singer is famous for, and is delivered with characteristic aplomb. Personnel: Ilya Toshinsky, Brian Sutton (acoustic guitar, banjo); Jimmie Lee Sloas (acoustic guitar); Tom Bukavac, Kenny Greenberg, Brent Mason (electric guitar); Mike Johnson , Paul Franklin (steel guitar, dobro); Aubrey Haynie (mandolin, fiddle); Charles Judge ...

Boogaloo To Jack Mcduff
Boogaloo To Jack Mcduff CD  (2005)

Acoustic album
CD $13.29  Audio Samples
Jack McDuff was closer to soul and funk than most of the jazz Hammond B-3 organ players who found wider audiences after the success of Jimmy Smith, and his death in 2001 was a tremendous loss. This neat little compilation from Scufflin' Records features several young organ jazz combos in a tribute to McDuff, and it's all a whole lot of fun. Highlights here include "A Real Gone Guy" by the Joe Krown Organ Trio, the zippy "The Natural Thing" by the Night Callers, "Briar Patch" by the Link Quartet, and the delightful "Butter (Fo Yo Popcorn)" by the New Mastersounds. ~ Steve Leggett Live Recording Tributee: Jack McDuff. Personnel: Eddie Roberts (guitar, tambourine); Landis Armstrong, John Humphrey , John Fohl, Pete Nathan, Ron Affif, Giulio "Link" Cardini, Chris Vitarello (guitar); Mike Dubaniewicz (alto saxophone); Rich Wheeler, Eric Traub (tenor saxophone); David Basinger (baritone saxophone); Chris Leopold (trumpet); Adam Klipple, Joe Krown, Jeremy Baum, Bob Birch, Nate "Count" Basinger ...
Doc Watson In Nashville: Good Deal!
Doc Watson In Nashville: Good Deal! CD  (1968) Import

Acoustic CD music
CD $16.29
This release of folk-country artist Doc Watson's 1968 recording includes musical guests such as Floyd Cramer and Buddy Spicher. The early and mid-1960s were good for Doc Watson in folk circles, but by the end of the decade, the folk boom was fading, and he gravitated back toward country audiences (even Joan Baez was cutting records in Nashville). This pleasant but unexceptional album was one result. Watson does genially sung, beautifully played covers of songs by Roy Acuff ("Streamline Cannonball"), Jimmie Rodgers ("Peach Pickin' Time In Georgia"), A.P. Carter ("I'm Thinking Tonight of My Blue Eyes"), and even Blind Boy Fuller ("Step It Up and Go"), scattered among a handful of original and traditional numbers. The playing is more impressive than the arrangements, which have that trademark Nashville smoothness, bolstered by Merle Watson and Grady Martin on guitars, Tommy Jackson and Buddy Spicher on fiddles (they get a workout on "June Apple"), Floyd Cramer at the piano, and Buddy Harman on the drums. ~ Bruce Eder After a successful career as a folk singer in the early and mid-60s, Doc Watson, like other folk artists including Joan Baez, recorded more country-orientated material as the folk boom dissipated. This 1968 album for Vanguard features a strong line-up of Nashville's ...
