The Steep Canyon Rangers were destined for greatness. Their dedication to the music shows in every note they play, but it’s the band’s amazing songwriting talent that makes them truly exceptional. While firmly rooted in the bluegrass tradition, their ability to bring in elements drawn from hard core honky-tonk, classic country and the blues sets them apart from the rest of the pack. Their arrangements and harmonies are tight and their musicianship is excellent and imaginative, with Mike Guggino’s mandolin, Nicky Sanders’ fiddle, and Sharp’s banjo all working together flawlessly. Woody Platt’s lead vocals are solid and right on the money. This is an album of solid, power-packed traditional bluegrass, showing the results of years of extensive touring combined with raw talent and good taste. Ronnie Bowman adds harmony vocals on a few numbers, and a little work by Wyatt Rice (guitar) and Randy Kohrs (Dobro) enhances this spectacular album.
