4.0 out of 5 stars Very good instrumental mix of old and new, February 5, 2007

This review is from: Pure Pickin: Classic Bluegrass Instrumentals (Audio CD)

THis is one of my top 3 bluegrass albums(my number one and two are Tony Rice the bluegrass guitar album and Ultimate pickin') What is kind of neat is this album is it is 50/50 old and new. I usually shy away from the older ones because of the poor recording equipment. But this one has ones I really liked (especially if you play). As far as the NEW sounding instrumentals, the Gold Rush and Jerusalem Ridge are just amazing!!! For the old ones, the kentucky colonels doing 9 lb hammer is very neat. The guitar and mandolin play about 14 different solos. Highly recommended, all instrumental music. Great album for someone like me who plays and goes to bluegrass jams and festivals.

I couldn't believe how many great cuts they've put together on a single CD. If you love this music, and don't already have an extensive collection of CD's by the individual artists, then you can't go wrong with this one.
