Title: Meisterwerk
Review: Not much can really be added to all of these glowing reviews, but I'm compelled to add my two cents' worth. Compelled, I say, because ... well ... I LOVE Tony's music. And this is simply an incredible collection of covers, executed with a style and nuance that only Tony can seem to bring to dusty ol' standards and popular tracks as well. I am sure that this album figures prominently in the collection of bluegrass fans all around the world. I have filed it in the "definitive" section my CD rack. An absolute favorite. I wish Tony could still sing it like he did on this one. ("John Wilkes Booth" is an exceptional piece of music.) Some of these cuts will break your heart.WARNING: This is one of those albums you don't really want to spring on your friends too quickly if you're trying to initiate them into bluegrass. It might cause paralysis. Or, barring that, you might spoil 'em too badly for some of the other great stuff out there. Nothing worse than a jaded neophyte. Make 'em work up to it!
