CD Reviews

Can't Lose With Bill Monroe

Adam B. Lander | Chicago, IL | 02/12/2004

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Plain and simple, this is a great CD. In fact, just about any Monroe album you buy will be worth the moolah. I picked this CD at the store because I was getting into bluegrass and wanted some Monroe. The packaging looks kind of dated, but the music is fantastic. Driving through the mountains on a cross country trip, there's nothing better than listening to "Blue Moon of Kentucky", "Bluegrass Breakdown", and all the different incarnations of "Blue Yodel."
If looking for nothing other than an introduction to some great bluegrass and the genius that began it, this would be a great CD to start off with. But for serious bluegrass fans or those who know their Bill Monroe, I would suggest a more comprehensive collection or a box set. Either way, you're getting good music that Britney, Justin and 50 Cent can't touch."
