"I'm listening to it right now. Pipeline, Apache, Green Onions, Wipeout. They're great! The music is not loud, almost soft. No vocal, just instruments. Buy this CD!"
Surfer music from a bluegrass ensemble.

"It's the best of both parts of the diverse soundtrack of my adolescence - great radio hits of the Sixties done in an indescribably hip instrumental style. "Sleepwalk" is done as it absolutely must be done, the lead on this venerable old belly-rubber has never sounded as plaintive as it does on the Dobro. "Wipeout" has a delightfully insane approach to the hackneyed old drum solo - mouth music, grunting, and "found" percussion. It couldn't be any better.You have to listen to this to believe it. If you ever went to something like the Catholic Youth Organization dances, listened to KMEN 1290 in its pop heyday in Southern California, or danced to "Last Date" with that really special someone, and then later included bluegrass in your expanding musical collection, you will play this CD until the paint falls off."
A "Must-Have" for any Collection

"Great selection of tunes and guest artists. Pipeline, Walk-Don't Run", Wipe-Out and the classic"Last Date" are excellent examples of what happens when a couple of great musicians get together and just want to have fun. Rob Ickes RULES on the Dobro!"
