NICKERSON ROSS - CD LETS KICK IT

Popis - LETS KICK IT:
This 'incredibly hot' banjo project must have been filled with jet fuel the way it took off after I started playing it ... Ross's new album is on fire!!! I listened on my car CD player and forgot which road I was traveling ... The disc IS incredible ... Every inch of Let's Kick It is exactly what its title implies, true heel-kickin' Appalachian joy, unrestrained delight in zesty melodies i was amazed at how hard driving this Album is. It is a pure joy to listen too There are two Nickerson originals featured and he proves to be as good a composer as he is a picker. Let’s Kick it is the latest release from Ross Nickerson. Accompanying Ross’ hard-driving, bluegrass banjo are members of the critically acclaimed bluegrass band, Blue Highway, Rob Ickes on dobro, Tim Stafford, guitar and vocal, Shawn Lane mandolin and fiddle and Wayne Taylor, bass and vocals. This album full of well-known material, highlighted with unique originals that any fan of bluegrass music will enjoy. Keeping true to his forte, Ross has assembled a fantastic set of straight-ahead bluegrass classics featuring his creative, hard driving banjo playing alongside a great group of musicians. The CD was engineered in Nashville by banjo great Scott Vestal and features fast tempos, explosive solos and some great new bluegrass music. Notes from Ross Nickerson We recorded the CD in a two day session in Nashville in March, 2009 and I returned in May to finish it up and help mix the CD. I was very happy to be able to complete the project so quickly. The members of Blue Highway, Rob ickes, TIm Stafford, Shawn Lane and Wayne Taylor were awesome and quick in the studio. Sometimes the recording is the easy part, my last CD, the artwork for the insert and other loose ends took longer than recording. Art work for the CD insert can be very time consuming (and not any where near as much fun as recording) so I'm relieved that we completed it and its ready to listen to within a few months of laying down the tracks. I hope you like it, there are sound clips and in keeping with my commitment to helping others learn to play banjo I've released a tablature booklet of the banjo solos on the CD.
