Some great jams on some great Gov't Mule songs! Power Grass mixed with some beautiful ballads. David's guests include the usual Pickin' On suspects. Tom Ball, Buster Saticoy, Lorenzo Martinez, more! |
 |
|
|
You may want to buy this one for its provocative cover, but the bluegrass inspired treatment of John Mayer's great music is no less
provocative. Featuring Tom Ball, Gabe Witcher, Lorenzo Martinez and David West. Rocks! |
 |
|
|

Like Vol. 1 only
more so! |
 |
|
|
Blues Traveler's
music lost none of its urgency in its transformation to bluegrass.
Hot solos by Tom Ball on (blues) harp, Gabe Witcher on fiddle and
many top players. |
 |
|
|
The Byrds music
proved to be custom made for the "Pickin' On" treatment!
Look for some HOT steel playing by one of the best; Jay Dee Maness
(who also played on some of the Byrds original versions!). |
 |
|
|
Strange but true!
Beautiful versions featuring guitars, mandolins, banjos, steel and
fiddle. |
 |
|
|
HOT, HOT, HOT!
Tom Ball, Richard Greene, Jay Dee Maness, Byron Berline and many
more. HOT! |
 |
|
|
Hard to imagine?
Check it out, it works! Complex bluegrass arrangements with
percussion. |
 |
|
|
If you like Pink
Floyd or even if you don't, this album will pin you against THE WALL!
Great players, famous songs from P.F.'s long history. |
 |
|
|
Another group
whose music is a perfect vehicle for bluegrass/country
treatment. |
 |
|
|
Like Vol. 1 only
more so! |
 |
|
|
Vol. 1 and 2 together! Such a deal! |
 |

American release of Pickin' on Neil Young. 17 songs! |
 |
|
|
This is the
European release of Pickin' on Neil Young. The Euro releases have more
elaborate graphics. Usually an extensive booklet with photos/bios of
the musicians and liner notes by David West. |
 |
|
|
You guessed it!
Bluegrass/Americana versions, but this time bringing in some new
sonic variations with hammered dulcimer and cello! |
 |
|
|
This is a very
beautiful album by virtue of the great material. From the ridiculous
(Gloria) to the sublime (Tupelo Honey), from ripping (Brown Eyed
Girl) to etherial (Sweet Thing), its all here. Great Gabe Witcher
fiddling, Tom Ball on harmonica. |
 |
|
|
A more
Garcia-centric variation of the Pickin' on the Dead series. This one
features the always spectacular Albert Lee, the great steel playing
of John McFee and usual harmonica genius of Tom Ball. |
 |
|
|
They said it
couldn't be done! Killer arrangements of Foreplay/Long Time, Don't
Look Back, More Than a Feeling and all the big hits! |
 |
|
|
Billboard
magazine wrote about this album and they loved it! This version of
Born to Run was frequently heard on National Public Radio during the
presidential campaign of 2000. |
 |
|
| We couldn't get enough of "The Boss." This one is even cooler than Vol. 1! A lot of really hot guitar, if you like that sort of thing! |
 |
|
|
Vintage guitar
magazine wrote; "You'll forget all about Robert Johnson and Eric
Clapton when you hear the guitar solo on Crossroad Blues." Guests
include Dennis Caplinger and Byron Berline. |
 |
|
|
It was really a
pleasure converting these songs to bluegrass. In my humble opinion,
they lost none of their emotional content, thanks to some fabulous
playing by Gabe Witcher on fiddle, Tom Corbett on mandolin and more. |
 |
|
|
A slightly
different approach for this one. Each song is done in a different N.
American regional style. For instance; Jambolaya is in a Cajun style,
Take These Chains is in a Tex-Mex style, etc.
Interesting stuff! |
 |
|
|
A collection of
hot "Pickin' on" performances featuring many great banjo
practitioners. |

Same idea as
"Fire on the Banjo," different songs. |
 |
|
|
All your favorite
S&G songs bluegrass style! |
 |
|
|
Pinball Wizard,
My Generation, all the great WHO favorites done up in blazing
bluegrass! |

We're takin' it

appearence by long time Doobie bassist Tyran Porter! Of course Doobie
Brother John McFee has guested on other "Pickin' On" CDs. |
 |
|
|
If its jamming
you want, look no further. Great versions of S.T.I. tunes bluegrass
style. |

The great honky tonk music of Alan Jackson, plus bluegrass instruments, plus great playing equals a great new Pickin' On CD! Features Tom Ball on harp and check out new fiddle sensation Buster Saticoy! |
 |
|

Magical
music that reflects the spirit of the season with the
enchanting sounds of hammered dulcimer, harmonium, and
mandolin, along with guitar, fiddle, and
banjo. |
