5.0 out of 5 stars i told the whippoorwill all about you..., June 16, 2006

Anyone who listens to Doc Watson will immediately recognize his influence on CCL. Listen a bit closer and you'll hear John Hartford's ghost. But just as John Hartford forged new paths through the staid bluegrass landscape in his time, CCL takes their influences and creates a beautiful new bluegrass tradition. Their instruments blend seamlessly and then rise and fall in swooping solos. But, best of all, the four band members cluster round a single microphone and rely upon their own natural abilities (and not a mixing board) to create their soaring and yet perfectly harmonized vocals. Get their first two albums and you'll understand what I'm writing about. This band just keeps getting better.

The first time I heard CD I thought it was ok. Second time it was good and then songs started playing in my mind and then I was hooked. This is by far their best effort. Make sure to read the lyrics to really appreciate this CD.

What can one say more than this is another gem from this great band start to finish.

As I've said before, their live show cannot be missed, jaw dropping instrumental work. I really hope they get the attention they deserve with this effort.
