5.0 out of 5 stars PK does Bluegrass - with a lot of help from Uncle Bill, February 8, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Smoke (Audio CD)

I have to say I didn't know what to expect when I heard PK was doing a bluegrass record but after one time through on the CD player it was an instant favourite. Some great versions of PK songs such as Sydney from a 727 & Taught be Experts, and some great new songs with Uncle Bill.

I was lucky enough to see PK & Uncle Bill perform all these songs on concert twice in one weekend - Friday night at the Great Northern in Byron Bay and Sunday at the Waterloo in Brisbane - and both PK and Uncle Bill were outstanding. If you like Paul Kelly or just bluegrass music you will love this albumn.

5.0 out of 5 stars Almost as good as the concert..., April 2, 2000

This review is from: Smoke (Audio CD)

I saw Paul Kelly perform most of these songs with bluegrass band Uncle Bill at the Waterloo Hotel in Brisbane, November 1999. It was a special night in my life because it was the first time I had seen Paul Kelly live, and I felt a tingle down my spine to hear so many of the songs that have best defined Australia and Australians for the past couple of decades. I feel that Paul Kelly articulates a lot of things about my country, about who we are. This CD may not capture all the emotion of the concert, but all I can say is, if you haven't seen Paul Kelly in concert, do.

5.0 out of 5 stars As good as Steve Earle's CD "The Mountain", November 8, 1999

A brilliant bluegrass CD from Down Under. Paul Kelly has outdone himself with a CD that holds its own against the incredibly high standard created by Steve Earle in his CD "The Mountain." Like Earle, Kelly deserves a lot more credit than he gets and both are two of the finest songwriters around.
