4.0 out of 5 stars
+ 1/2 stars...Excellent Introduction to a Stellar Band,
By
This review is from: Footprints: A IIIrd Tyme Out Collection (MP3 Download)
IIIrd Tyme Out has been a mainstay in bluegrass music since the early Nineties and the 15-track collection is a nice overview of their career at Rounder. There are two new tracks: A terrific version of the standard "Footprints in the Snow" and the mournful "One Kiss from Loneliness," which shows the versatility of the band.
The remaining tracks are taken from their three studio albums for Rounder as well as one live track ("Erase the Miles") from 1997's LIVE AT THE MAC. The band is blessed with gifted musicians and their harmonies are impeccable--as their a cappella rendition of the gospel number "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot" attests to. [Note: Lead singer Russell Moore has been named male vocalist of the year and the band has been named vocal group of the year more than a dozen times by various bluegrass societies.] The band shines especially on the gospel number "Giving My Soul Back to Him." If you're new to the group, FOOTPRINTS makes an excellent introduction. [Running Time - 50:50] HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

This review is from: Footprints: A IIIrd Tyme Out Collection (Audio CD)
If you love classical bluegrass, you will love IIIrd Tyme Out.
They have great skills in arrangement, harmony, and "pickin". Although a modern skilled band, they avoid synthesizing with other popular musical styles. It is simply classical bluegrass with a country feel, and satisfying. They are among the top five current bluegrass bands in my opinion (in there with Blue Highway, Alison Krauss & Union Station, Tony Rice, and Ricky Skaggs).
