Our Take

Ah, Ralph Stanley, the legendary bluegrass master who has been pickin' and grinnin' for decades. His latest album, "Shine On", is a delightful romp through the hills and hollers of Appalachia.

From the moment you press play, you're transported to a front porch jam session with Stanley and his band. The banjos twang, the fiddles soar, and Stanley's distinctive vocals cut through it all like a whippoorwill in the night.

Standout tracks include the foot-stompin' "Take Me Home, Country Roads", a reimagining of the John Denver classic that will have you longing for the simple life of rural America. "Old Black Crow" is another gem, with its haunting melody and soulful lyrics that resonate long after the music has faded.

But it's not all moonshine and banjos on this album. Stanley also tackles more introspective themes, such as longing and loss, in songs like "I Am Your Man" and "The Fields of Time".

Overall, "Shine On" is a testament to Stanley's enduring talent and influence in the world of bluegrass music. So grab a jug of moonshine, kick back on your porch swing, and let Ralph Stanley serenade you into the night. You won't regret it.
