A
stunning Australian "Bluegrass & Acoustic" album
which will absolutely delight listeners and expand Karen's fanbase
enormously. From the gentleness and acoustic sweetness of the
opening ballad "We Should Only Have Time for Love",
to the power and strength of the opposing uptempo traditional
bluegrass tracks such as "Jealous", to the traditional
acoustic and almost folky feel of Phil Ochs "Changes",
you know that this album is very different and there is something
very special happening here.
Produced
by Rod McCormack & Herm Kovac, it is a much more contemporary
bluegrass album than her previous straight traditional bluegrass
album "Blue Mountain Rain". This project ventures much
deeper into the relms of the sound we expect and love from the
more contemporary bluegrass artists - such as Alison Krauss,
who have constantly pushed the boundaries of traditional bluegrass
in recent years. There are 13 tracks and a bonus track, comprising
a good balance of tempos from sweet acoustic ballads to strong
uptempo traditional bluegrass songs and as usual, it contains
a couple of songs from Karen's own hand. Both originals are co-writes,
this time with previous collaborator Heather Field and also with
Richard Porteous.
It
is beautifully packaged and combines exceptional production along
with Australia's 'A Team' of Bluegrass pickers - Ian Simpson
(banjo), Mick Albeck (Fiddle), James Gillard (Double Bass), Trev
Warner (Mandolin) and Rod McCormack (Guitar) and it is also the
first ever collaborative project from two of Australia's best
producers - Rod McCormack & Herm Kovac.
