THAT HIGH LONESOME SOUND INCARNATE

"MORNING GLORY is a thoroughly enjoyable album of varied song genres sung by Chris, with his smooth as velvet voice, with a mostly bluegrass backing instrumentation. It's a cousin to DESERT ROSE, but that was an album with a more rock 'n roll backup band. Herb Pederson, Hillman's longtime singing partner, provides the glorious high harmonies. These two wonderful singers sound like they were meant to sing together. Like Don & Phil, like Gram & EmmyLou, like George & Tammy, Tim & Mollie...Normally, I would've awarded this release 4 stars, however, it is very short time-wise, thus the deduction. The label should have combined MORNING GLORY with DESERT ROSE as a twofer. At least, that's what I would have done, but I'm not a record label exec."

"I REALLY ENJOYED THIS CD.
HICKORY WIND AND RIPPLE ARE MY FAVORITE.
I THINK CHRIS HILLMAN & HERB PEDERSEN HAVE GREAT HARMONY AND I WILL
BUY MORE CD'S BY THEM."
