Not Del's Best, but Still Better Than Most, December 30, 2000
This review is from: Blue Side of Town (Audio CD)
This album would recieve 5 stars for just about anyone else in the bluegrass genre today. However, Del McCoury has set very high standards for himself with his fine body of work over the years. That being said, this is still tight work from one of the best bluegrass stars in the business. This is an earlier work from Del and does not star his band as it exists today. While it does not measure up to the "perfect" standards of his current unit, it is still powerfull emotion-filled bluegrass.

My first Blue grass album, January 25, 2004
This review is from: Blue Side of Town (Audio CD)
I've listened to a bit of blue grass over the last few years, but this is the first total BG album I have purchased. Initially I was a little thrown by Del's voice, as the classic BG style he uses takes a little time to get into. However, it is of couse this style of singing that gives BG part of its power and after a few listens I have come to love this album. Three tracks stand out in particluar - before the fire comes down, high on a mountain and I beleive, these are wonderful songs.
