5.0 out of 5 stars amazing range, April 6, 2008
By 
Richard Bowdon (Cary, NC United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Hard Year Blues (Audio CD)
It's hard to believe that Tim could have produced such a great album way back in 1984. I have most of his stuff since, which I love, but he still hasn't topped this early effort. He ranges from country to blues to bluegrass to jazz. The Whites and his Hot Rize friends contribute. Amazing musicianship.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great bluegrass, February 22, 2006
This review is from: Hard Year Blues (Audio CD)
This album has allowed me to survive many trips accross country. The title track is high-speed, ripe with both a lovable melody and a great set of lyrics. I love singing along when no one is around.
"Cora Is Gone" is a standard which resonates.
The albmum is simple yet full like the best of the bluegrass.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great recording..., May 24, 2005
By 
SWboy (hometown USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Hard Year Blues (Audio CD)
I believe this is Tim's 2nd solo recording
(the first was a long out of print LP called
"Guess Who's in Town") The songs and instrumentals here
are a wide variety of roots musics, and showcase his many
talents. It moves from country to gospel to celtic to jazz to
bluegrass, but is cohesive and nicely paced. Obviously a 'labor
of love'--every single track is outstanding. This is my
favorite Tim O'Brien CD.
