"'Talk About Suffering' is unquestionably Tony Rice and Ricky Skaggs at their vocal peak as duet partners. This is simply unmatched for being one of the purest and yet most elegant acapella bluegrass gospel duets imaginable, both voices blending perfectly.
An instant classic, their recording was recognized immediately as a real standout in the Rice and Skaggs repertoire. Here two instrumental virtuosi put down guitar and mandolin long enough to produce, on vocal harmony alone, one for the ages." ~ Marian Leighton Levy, Co-Founder of Rounder Records
