Or you could make it easy on yourself and get the Union Station CDs. |

| christy_oneil (Nottingham UK) | Posted: Jun 19, 2012 - 09:22 Edgar Meyer has a talent for playing a part in consistently brilliant instrumentals of all sorts, as well as for playing the fat fiddle as well as he does. I was introduced to his 'Unfolding' album from '86 during the early '90s and have been hooked since. Also great to see him getting involved at last in BBC4's transatlantic celtic/bluegrass sessions on tv along with long time co conspirator Bela Fleck. Check also Bela's 'Crossfire' tune featuring em both alongside some fiendish fiddlin frenzy! Cheers mi duck! |

| AndyJ (Oregon) | Posted: Jan 02, 2012 - 15:51 Lots of Nu2Mi music using the cello... Very interesting and cool...adds a depth that the guitar lacks and the bass is too deep... Thanks... I keep buying music I first hear here... This is getting expensive... 2-3-5 CDs a day is a bit more than I can/should afford... course, being holidays and nothing to do but listen and surf... If I don't get back to work, I won't be able to afford music... Still better'n alcohol or drugs... but... Call me "Konflicted..." |

Truly a classic of the genre, much as Plan 9 from Outer Space is a classic of the so-bad-its-good kitsch film genre. Has anyone compiled a list of the 'top' 20 worst-ever album covers, anyone know? |

| Alexandra (The Gem City, Ohio) | Posted: Dec 27, 2010 - 05:14 To me, these guys are "the sound" of the Telluride Bluegrass Festival in Colorado, held every June. I used to attend it yearly in the early 90s, and they were always there at workshops and having sets together....and I always feel like I'm right back there under the aspens, with that beautiful box canyon mountainscape surrounding the little Telluride stage....great musicians. ![]() |

However, I'm sure the phenomenal Mr. Knopfler himself would admit he doesm't have half the chops of Jerry Douglas. And BTW, it's not a steel guitar, it's a dobro. These are all world class musicians at the top of thier games. Open your mind. Open your ears and let the beauty of the music speak for itself. A Dobro is a brand of resonator guitar (acoustic guitars with metal inserts). So is a National. Dobro and National are brand names (registered trademarks). They are usually played in steel guitar fashion with a slide (the steel). Jerry Douglas plays his Dobro in steel guitar fashion. And IMHO, Jerry and Mark are both phenomenal musicians. No comparisons are necessary. |
