The "Blackjack Ridge" Band from Tennessee breaks out with some great traditional bluegrass and hits the pavement running with this new album "New Attitude". With great innovative licks and arrangements, like what you will hear with their tune "Fire On The Mountain". Ed Stacy on the banjo makes it his own, as well as the band's distinctive styling's Christi Cato on bass and vocals, Steve Mofield guitar ,vocals and Bill Scott on mandolin and vocals, they bring some thing to it, and I like the way they do with it. " Hot Burrito" is a fine up tempo instrumental that get's those toe's tappin' and the clog dancer's headed to get their shoes on. And they add their own style to "Catfish John" and "Tall Pines" too. There is music for the traditional and contemporary a like, even one for the Merle Haggard fan's "If We Make It Through December." They may be up and coming as they put it, but they have a lot of energy and put it out there for you to enjoy. I will be playing this new Cd on my radio show's, and I hope your copy is in your hot bluegrass lovin' hands right now.
