COMMUNITY REVIEWS

What a brilliant idea submitted by ccrose on August 30, 2019, 1:08pm Nutty Gritty Dirt Band young fellows play with the masters. I think both groups had a lot of fun. So many songs I’ve played to learn chords to sing and some I just like but don’t think I’ll sing: ie Dead Skunk in the Middle of the Road.

ideal into point to explore country music submitted by irenzero on June 13, 2022, 5:56pm Wanna explore the the sounds of country.. this is a great place to start. This is the ideal kind of album to put on and listen while sitting on the porch or folding laundry and just enjoying as it plays out.

Brings back great memories submitted by Helengio on July 14, 2023, 9:16pm I enjoyed exploring the music as a kid with my dad and the songs have stuck with me.
