Excellent contemporary bluegrass music from fiddler Jamie Harper.
Sidemen include Junior Sisk (vocals) and Jason Davis (banjo).

1 – (2:42) Booth Shot Lincoln* Fine playing of this rare fiddle tune, mid.
2 – (3:06) To Fly* Terrific dark modal song, whiskey, women & trouble.
3 – (3:58) A Piece At A Time Sad ¾ time song about a dying farm/way of life.
4 – (2:29) Enough On My Mind* Up-tempo tune about hard times, really nice.
5 – (2:58) Old Joe Clark* Up-tempo instrumental classic, terrific playing.
6 – (2:54) Goodbye Little Darlin’* Fine breakup tune, Junior Sisk on vocals.
7 – (3:00) Till It Was Gone Good mid song of love & regret.
8 – (2:51) Her Memories Bound To Ride* Great mid song, haunting breakup theme.
9 – (3:26) Remember The Cross* Another Sisk vocal, fine bluegrass gospel.
10 – (2:53) This Heart Of Mine* Nice cover of Newgrass Revival hit.
11 – (2:24) Goodbye Old Pal* Harper sings lead on this Monroe song, excellent!
12 – (2:11) Cotton Eyed Joe* Fast instrumental, amazing playing!
