5.0 out of 5 stars Hand me some fried okra, I'm ready to go home, October 15, 1999

Used to see these guys play all the time back in Oxford, Miss., beer in my hand and standing two inches away from the amp... They still got it in this, their third album. If you like alt-country like Son Volt, Uncle Tupelo, Neil Young or Lyle Lovett, check these guys out. Great guitars, wonderful storytelling and a sense of honesty and guts that outpaces most of the calculated fluff out there these days. Have a beer for me.

5.0 out of 5 stars Blue Mountain is getting better each outing, December 2, 1999

This album certainly doesn't disappoint a die-hard Blue Mountain fan. "Dog Days" and "Homegrown" are two of my favorite albums and I was very much looking forward to this new effort. I had the extreme pleasure to see the band live a few weeks back - don't miss 'em when they come around! This album gives you a taste of their passionate live performances. Cary Hudson is one fine guitar player! If you like true American roots rock & roll, you'll love this band.

Do yourself a favor and buy "Dog Days" while you're at it - it'll save you a trip.

5.0 out of 5 stars It doesn't get much better than this........., October 31, 1999

After the good but somewhat uneven "Homegrown", Blue Mountain return to form with a very strong outing. "Tales of a Traveler" has it all: catchy tunes, fast-paced rockers, blues-tinged songs and poignant ballads. Overall, a very focused an cohesive work. This band is one of the best out there -- do yourself a favor and check them out.
