Very nice all-instrumental album from the Brights, ably assisted by Vassar Clements, Peter Rowan, and Tony Rice. Billy and Bryn are part of the new generation of progressive bluegrass musicians, and one doesn't have to be clairvoyant to predict we'll be hearing great music from them for many years to come.

5.0 out of 5 stars Modern Bluegrass at it's best, October 17, 2002

Guillermo and Mandola Smokabola are examples of modern bluegrass at it's best. It's not simple formulary writing. It's truly unique composition with flair. I was impressed with the CD right from the beginning... The CD ranges from playful to somber melodies and pure bluegrass to light jazz with a hint of Latin influence. I would encourage you to go to Billy & Bryn's page on Blue Corn Music's website and listen to a few samples. Or, you can take my word. The CD is topnotch. I can't seem to take mine out of my CD player for more than a day. In fact, this CD is likely to be one of the most played in my collection. Check out AustinExperience.com for my full review.

If you like Americana music, this is an excellent album. Jerusalem Cafew sounds just like the live version I heard at Merlefest. Mandola Smokabola is just fun to listen to. My favorite is Santisima Muerte, with its Brazilian type beat.
This is one of my favorite albums!
