If you like bluegrass... you'll like this
If you like Van Halen... you might not. I have an ecletic musical interest that includes a wide range of acoustical compositions and I also listen to rock, metal and even some country. I like both David Lee Roth and Sammy... so knowing all that, I was very impressed with the songs. Knowing the songs so well and hearing them in this raw acousitc style was a treat and a surprise. But then I like surprises. Will I tune this in for all day play-fest? Probably not. But there are a couple gems if you are looking for a few singles. "Jump" was cool, especially since David Lee Roth was singing (Interesting to hear the bluegrass version with his vocals) and "Ice Cream Man" was great. I love that song! Those two songs made it into one of my most played playlists. Anyway... that's my thoughts. I think the rather harsh comments from the two reviewers just ahead of me were a little short sided. Perhaps they just don't like bluegrass and in that case shouldn't be reviewing the album. It's a bluegrass
