Synopsis

Album Description
Here are the beginnings of the bluegrass-to-the-future genre that came to be known as new acoustic music. Tony Trischka, Pete Wernick, Russ Barenberg, John Miller, Lou Martin and Andy Statman collectively and individually revolutionized the possibilities for players of acoustic stringed instruments in bluegrass-based music with two mid-'70s albums. This hour-long collection comprises the best of their two Rounder albums, along with several cuts never issued on LP.

"Oldies But Goodies"
For Two Cents Plain | Brooklyn, New York United States | 05/09/2007
(5 out of 5 stars)

"It is hard to remember how unusual these performances were thirty-something years ago -- since the novelty of these ideas has worn off by now, and the chops of the players set a standard that others on the newgrass scene reached. But beyond innovation and technique, the music on this CD is refreshingly alive, exuberant, and full of feeling. All in all, these early Barenberg / Trishka / Statman / Wernick / Kosek / Miller / Martin tracks represent an American musical milestone, and one that has stood the test of time!"
