Mengeling van bekende en minder bekende bluegrass-artiesten, met ook variatie in stijlzuiverheid. Van Alison Krauss is een song uitgekozen uit de tijd dat ze nog meer zuivere bluegrasspaden bewandelde dan tegenwoordig. In het boekje staat een bio over alle artiesten op de CD. "Born out of the tradition of the old Southern ensemble string bands of the 19th century, bluegrass is no older as a genre than rock 'n' roll is, and both were born when the amplification of instruments became widely available in the '50s. What gives bluegrass the feel of being an older music form is the continued use of the old string band tunes, speeding them up, giving them lift, and reinventing them over and over again, so it probably should come as no surprise that two of the biggest highlights on this set of bluegrass performances are versions of old traditional songs, Peter Rowan's take on "Man of Constant Sorrow" and Sam Bush's rendition of "Diamond Joe." All in all, this is a very pleasant playlist." (Steve Leggett, Allmusic)
