Desert Island Album.......2006-11-07

This is a must-own album for any music fan or musician. Instead of the usual "star-in-a-cowboy-hat" of country music, this album features the most incredible musicians that make the frontman sound good.

Mark O'Connor is a virtuoso. Each track has even more amazing musicians that round out the sound. This album could be placed in a time capsule or put on a rocketship to outer space for alien cultures to showcase examples of...Oh, that is what a fiddle, Mandolin, steel guitar, dobro, acoustic guitar, honky-tonk piano, harmonica, dulcimer, mountain dulcimer, hammered dulcimer, double bass...etc should sound like.

And especially if you are a musician, you'll re-listen over and over because you will truly understand HOW impossible it is make the music that you just heard. It will rank in top 3 of your Desert Island Albums.

Mark O'Connor Plays Everything.......2005-04-07

This is a terrific showcase for O'Connor's remarkable prowess on the fiddle as he moves flawlessly from one style to the next, cajun, bluegrass, old-time, he tackles it all while surrounding himself with some of the best country musicians I have ever heard such as steel guitar player Paul Franklin and piano player Matt Rollins. Mostly these are up-tempo instrumental tracks but there are also a few vocal tracks included. If you want to hear musicians playing for musicians, this is a great CD.

Mark O'Connor and The Nashville Cats are the cats meow!!!.......2003-10-23

I had this tape a number of years ago and my oh my...I wore it out and now i'm back to order me another one. It is in my top 5 of favs!!! A lot of awesome musicians having a lot of fun in an old bluegrass style but still a style of thier own.. I'd recommend this tape to anyone that just loves country, bluegrass and just wants to have some good ole fun!!!

A (deliberately) goofy album by a truly great fiddler.......2003-01-17

Championship bluegrass fiddler Mark O'Connor and various hotshot picker pals take on the explosive sounds of "young country" commercial music, as well as amped-up versions of bluegrass and western swing. To say that truegrass fans won't like this album is simply stating the obvious -- why country fans would, either, is a little harder to sort out. Certainly O'Connor & Co. are dazzlingly talented musicians, and it is kind of liberating to hear them horsing around and cutting loose from the boundaries of the new- and bluegrass, where he made his mark. Still, O'Connor playing electric sounds a lot like Charlie Daniels, and the musical style that he is so affectionately sending up (TV commercial country) simply lacks soul. It would have been a lot more interesting if he'd played it straight and put a little more sincere emotion into the performances.

Wow, wow and wow again........2002-01-16

A great rollicking Nashville CD. Slick, humorous, and with a supporting cast whose work had me constantly shouting to myself, "Whoa! How did they do that?"
