Synopsis

Album Description
Hailed as one of the finest guitarists of his generation, GRAMMY award winner Bryan Sutton brings together esteemed players and artists including Bela Fleck, Chris Thile, Tim O'Brien, Hot Rize and Russ Barenberg on this new album Almost Live. The musicians in these sessions reflect just how central Bryan Sutton has become to acoustic music, not so many years after arriving as the fireballing flatpicker in the influential bluegrass revival band, Ricky Skaggs and Kentucky Thunder. "The aim was to keep these meet-ups simple and spontaneous- to channel the synergy they'd built on stage in the reassuring comfort of the studio. The results have a sizzle and depth that's hard to capture or define." -taken from the liner notes by Craig Havighurst

Not as good as other albums

"first I am an ENORMOUS fan of Bryan Sutton. His last 3 were amazing. This has a little too much banjo backup for my taste. I can't hear the guitar because the banjo is racing around (is it Bela Fleck??/ it sounds like him the way it races around with no destination) anyway, it is also short. 10 songs is not alot. I really loved his last few albums, how he took old fiddle tunes and reworked them. I wish he would do that again, with less banjo backup and more fiddle tunes, just my opinion. Still a big fan, but if you haven't bought the last 3, get them."
