Terrific new release from BH, now in their 20th year as a band. Top-notch
contemporary bluegrass with great vocals and musicianship.
1 – (2:42) The Game* Up-tempo bad man ballad rife w/immorality & gunplay.
2 – (3:08) Remind Me Of You* Mid, nostalgic, terrific harmony.
3 – (4:14) Dogtown* Mid, modal instrumental, very nice.
4 – (3:13) All The Things You Do Mid, Shawn Lane original, decent.
5 – (4:15) A Change Of Faith In Tennessee* Slow, sad song of betrayal.
6 – (2:36) Talk Is Cheap* Up-tempo cautionary tale, great harmonies.
7 – (2:40) Church Bell Wedding Blues Mid, love lament, pretty good.
8 – (2:29) Where Jasmine Grows* Another Lane original, tale of wandering.
9 – (3:00) My Last Day In The Mine* Slower ballad, very nice.
10 – (3:38) Just To Have A Job Lane original, nostalgic & reflective.
11 – (2:58) Funny Farm* Up-tempo instrumental, very good playing.
12 – (3:30) Hick’s Farewell* Slow meditation on mortality, haunting.
