‘Carolina Memories’
The Gentlemen of Bluegrass (Pinecastle)
3.5 stars out of 5
The Gentlemen of Bluegrass favor the traditional bluegrass sound and deliver a delightfully retro recording in “Carolina Memories.” The five Gentlemen (Danny Stanley, Tom Langdon, Julian Rowland, Greg Penny and Randy Smith) mix pitch-perfect harmonies and finger-picked melodies on a 14-track platter that’s sure to appeal to bluegrass fans of all ages.
The delightful title track launches the set, and The Gentlemen of Bluegrass additionally score with “Waltz of the Angels,” “Traveling Kind,” “Amazng Grace,” “Keep Me From Blowing Away,” “Will the Roses Bloom” and “Tribute to John Duffy.” Enjoy, y’all. (Jeffrey Sisk)
