Tey get better and better Submitted on: 2009-11-13 |

The Rangers get better and better with each new CD, which I find amazing since they are the very best bluegrass band around period,and its hard to see how they can get any better.
Their material is always fresh, and there are not many bands who can play/sing that well AND write their own material. Every one of them have contributed new material over the years, and some of the tunes are destined to become classics someday.
As someone who has followed them almost since their beginnings, and who has seen them perform live countless times, I am thrilled to see that they have honed their craft to a razor's edge.
It just does not get any better that SCR. |

| I saw this band perform with Steve Martin on TV and loved them. This was my first CD purchase from them and I was not disappointed. Their quality of instrumentation is very high and I thought their vocalization beautiful. I would recommend this CD and will purchase their others. |

Touring with Steve Martin..... Submitted on: 2009-10-25 |

| I don't have any albums (yet!) but will definitely be getting them. Just saw these guys last night with Steve Martin on his Denver leg of "The Crow" tour, and the SCR are outstanding!! Every member contributes - there are no prima donnas, and each had an opportunity to showcase their talent. Their fiddle player Nicky was one fire last night - one encore song was "Orange Blossom Special" and he played like nobody I've ever seen before! The other encore song was "King Tut" done bluegrass-style, and a fine rendition it was. I look forward to seeing where SCR goes in the future. If you have the chance to catch them live, I highly recommend it - especially if they're with Steve. Awesome musicians!! |

The Very Best in Bluegrass! Submitted on: 2009-10-06 |

Still another superb CD from clearly one of the very top, if not the top
bluegrass band in the land! This exellent group of yong artists just gets better and better with each recording! Woody Platt has never sounded
better, as the lead vocalist, than he does on "The Mountain Gonna Sing". Each of these talented men is very talented in their own right and on their individual instruments and it is high time that they are each recognized by the IBMA, as such. Graham Sharp and Charles Humphrey III (The Bearded Bard of Bluegrass) wrote almost all of these songs and are indeed among the very best writers in bluegrass - it is often said that bluegrass music, more than almost any other type of music, is all about the lyrics and this is one of many reasons that sets the Rangers a part from so many other bands - they write almost all of their songs and this keeps their music fresh and original. This CD should certainly go right to the top of the bluegrass charts and should be the leading candidate for album of the year. Any number of these songs could and should become number one on the charts including "The Mountain Gonna Sing", "Have Mercy","Turn Up The Bottle" and "Shades of Gray". The Rangers have been together longer than almost any other bluegrass band and this shows up in their wonderful and tight harmonies, energy and the way they complimnet each other. This group is a must see in person! No group is more fan friendly and each and every performance is very high energy. It can not get better than Nicky (fiddle), Mike (mandolin)and Graham (banjo)
and rumor has it thta Graham has continued to be a true mentor to Steve Martin! |
