Excellent blend of traditional and contemporary bluegrass from the
Lonesome River Band, now in their 25th year.
1 – (3:17) Anything To Make Her Mine* Fine up-tempo love song, great vocals.
2 – (3:12) Rocking Of The Cradle* Mid-tempo, reflective country-style crooner.
3 – (3:55) Boats Up The River* Slow, modal version of traditional song, quite fine.
4 – (3:03) Rock Bottom* Fast love lament, terrific track.
5 – (4:25) Rose In Paradise* Slow, beautiful and sad ballad, excellent.
6 – (4:09) Showing My Age Another country crooner, mid-tempo, OK.
7 – (2:49) Old Swinging Bridge* Mid-up-tempo love lament, fine
8 – (3:01) Mirrors Never Lie* Dark, brooding self-analysis, mid-tempo.
9 – (2:50) Thunder & Lightning* Mid-tempo bootlegger song, modal, very nice.
10 – (3:07) Waiting On My Heart To Break* Mid country weeper, features drums.
11 – (3:31) Runnin’ From The Blues* Up-tempo love lament, excellent.
12 – (3:26) Real People* Funny & quirky song, really good, mid-tempo.
