Folks, this is the real deal. Pure, unabashed, unashamed, in-your-face bluegrass. And we're gonna listen to it all.Tomorrow morning at 8:00 ET, our long-awaited Track-By-Track show with Ricky Skaggs debuts on Bluegrass Junction. This is a show I recorded a few weeks ago (as I mentioned in this post) and I'm excited to get it on the air at last.
Ricky joined me in studio and, behind vintage microphones (it just seemed to "fit" to bring out the old equipment, since Ricky is an enthusiast of that sort of thing), we visited for well more than an hour talking about this album, which is an authentic yet up-to-date treatment of several classic Bill Monroe songs. It's clear that this was a labor of love, not just for Ricky, but for his band, Kentucky Thunder.
I know you've been hearing songs from the album for some time, but it will take your breath away to hear the entire project track-by-track, which is exactly what we do on this show. Don't miss it!

Ricky Skaggs is such a wonderful person, and this CD is a master of his profession totally in his element.
