Album Review

This companion piece to Rounder's 1988 Dry Branch Fire Squad compilation Tried & True celebrates the mercurial bluegrass ensemble's Thirtieth Anniversary with 21 tracks culled from the last twenty years, a few which have never seen the light of day until now. Like Tried & True, which collected cuts from the group's first five albums, this latest anthology will appeal to fans of tight, raw mountain harmonies, unpredictable old-timey picking and straight-up gospel bluegrass. ~ James Christopher Monger, All Music Guide
