About the Artist

Before the platinum records covered his walls and industry awards filled the shelves, Vince Gill began his musical career as a bluegrass jack-of-all-trades. Gill readily absorbed the musical vitality of bluegrass while taking to heart its pious undertones. His fanatical interest finally manifested itself on High Lonesome Sound, an album that celebrates the music that originally inspired him to pick up a banjo and guitar. His sincerity shines bright throughout his catalog of hits. That is the reason fans continue to enjoy Vince Gill’s music.

Product Description

With a discography that has achieved both commercial and critical success, Vince Gill’s accomplishments will be immortalized. However, that doesn’t mean there isn’t room to try something new. The Bluegrass Gospel Tribute to Vince Gill collects some of his most celebrated tunes and transforms them from honky-tonk weepers into a cohesive unit of old-time beauty. Each song is re-imagined in a bluegrass gospel style. As the voices weave and soar to heavenly heights, thrilling mandolin breaks carry the songs like steady locomotives. The Bluegrass Gospel Tribute to Vince Gill is a refreshing album that will play well on a Saturday night or a Sunday morning.

If you like gospel music and love Vince Gill, this is the album for you. It contains all of his best songs and they are done with a wonderful gospel flavor, but they aren't too overdone.

This is a fun CD for Vince Gill and Bluegrass fans. The only way to make it better would have been to have Vince join the bands with his mandolin. The songs are done the way bluegrass pickers would play along with Gill's original.
