5.0 out of 5 stars One of the BEST Cd's I've heard lately, October 25, 2005

By	Matthew Waldron "Musician since 2003" (Douglasville, GA 30135) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I come from a different genre - 80's rock, to 80's country to finally wanting to go to the bluegrass/acoustic side.. I own 3 mandolins, a banjo and a Bouzouki.. Anyway, this CD is probably the best I've heard lately. I can't seem to put it down and always want to hear it.. The Oak Ridge boys have definitely been around 30+ Years and it shows. The harmonies are incredible. From "Train, Train" to "The Journey" there are some songs that needed to be heard by everyone. My favorites are "Old Familiar Love" and "Bad Case Of Missing You" also "Saving Grace" is just an incredible song. Joe Bonsall helps out on the Banjo - In credit's Ban-Joey plays "ore Banjer" and is also on a Deering advertisement. Richard gooes deeper than I've heard on "Bad Case of Missing You" and lead on "Old Familiar Love" . The whole thing is well worth your money - if you spend money on ONE cd this year.. make it this one!

5.0 out of 5 stars best oak ridge boy album ever!!!!!!, August 12, 2004

By	billybobjoe "shawn" (indiana) - See all my reviews

I have been an oak ridge boy fan since 1975, and I have all of the albums they have put out. this is one of the best country bluegrass albums I have ever heard. every song is great!!! my favorites are "Bad case of missing you" in which Richard sings the lowest he has ever sung! "My girl Friday" Duane takes the lead and tells the story of a devorced father getting weekend visits from his daugter. "I love you so much it hurts" is one of William Lee Golden's best songs he has ever sung!! The real prize on the album is "Saving Grace" where Joe sings about an elderly man who has to take care of his wife with Alsheimer disease. I cried the first time I heard it. for anyone who likes great contry bluegrass, acoustic music, and if you like the oaks, you must buy this album! it is their best album yet! 5 stars is what I give it, I would give it 10 stars if I could, and please get better William Lee.

4.0 out of 5 stars So they're a little older, January 4, 2007

By	Charles A. Fry "cfryguy" (BFL) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Train and other tracks on this CD are strong testimony to the continued strength of this quartet. Their harmonies are dynamic, and if Duane Allen's lead sounds a little aged from time to time, the overall quality of the Oaks' performance is still very satisfying.
