Being described as the Jimi Hendrix and the Charlie Parker of acoustic music must mean something to JD.This show surely proves all of that and more. Always true to his roots his band offers far more than just "another version" of the covers included here. Where someone like Ricky Skaggs would use country's old weapons of choice -sentimentality and religion - to sweeten the often labyrinthine complexities of Appalachian music, JD knows how to utilise folk and jazz timing to take the trip to another level.
They don't just call him " the dobro's matchless contemporary master."
