Judging by the album cover they all moonlight as Jerry Seinfeld impersonators.
The bandname sounds like a bunch of lawyers,
but if this was true, those lawyers would do a nice
'second' job.

It just occurred to me that this song tells a story through sound, it doesn't need words at all, truly remarkable.
cello gets me every time. or is that something else?
What is this wonder?
One of my favorite albums of all time!

Hello, très belle harmonie de cordes. Une jolie découverte qui me fait penser aux accents de Mark knofler par moments.
Merci !!

Only if you use EQ to boost low end below 100hz and tame the crazy high end peaks! I just bought a pair of Grado SR80 X had have both the on ear S pads and over ear G cups. Both Sound different & I have used EQ to make both of them sound great!

Hot damn. That is all.
Ladies and Gentlemen, to your left, you can read up about Gerry Douglas. My gast is flabbered. He has played on 1,000 albums!
Jerry Douglas and Band are playing tomorrow (24 September 2022) in Doylestown PA! Go say hi

SUPERB!!! I never heard of them before. Thank You RP!
You're missing out. Mr. Douglas might be the best steel player EVER. Them other dudes ain't bad neither.![angel](https://img.radioparadise.com/emoji/eusa_angel.gif)
Anything Jerry Douglas plays just makes me smile!
What I like about this is that these guys really know how to play but they resist showing off. Nicely understated.
Quite nice
This song pierces my soul
As though it were written just for me
Thank you

Went to see Jerry Douglas with Tommy Emmanuel a few weeks ago. Tremendous is not a word I use lightly but they were. This album is one of my all time favourites

Was in Izmir last year, for some reason this song is so evocative of that city. really got me into Bluegrass....incredible skill, just love it.
Am I dreaming, or is Edgar Meyer really hitting an E two octaves above a guitars high E string ... ON A BASS!
Gives me Goose Bumps every time.
so. Damn. Good.
Love this. Sooo Goood.
Douglas has quite a resume.

I saw Edgar Meyer play about the time this album came out. I don't remember if he was solo or with someone else. It wasn't this trio. It was amazing what he could do with a string bass. He is truly a virtuoso.
That base solo!!!!!!!

Well this is pretty good 'on a patio in Mexico on a Sunday afternoon' music. Which is where I am. So that worked out nicely.
Reminds me of Gaye Delorme. I like it.
That base solo!!!!!!!
I really enjoy these longer compositions, setting an atmosphere, letting every instrument shine, makes me drift and reflect, makes me feel more grateful for all the things and experiences I have and had.

I believe that's a bass, not a cello....
if the cello is wobble, the dobro must be hop, then the guitar must be skip?
unless he is playing slide dobro then that is wobble and the cello is hop?

They're getting up there. Haven't you seen their TV commercials? "If you've been hurt in a car accident contact Meyer, Douglas, and Barenberg..." Cool tune, nice production.
And they represent Dunder Mifflin Paper Co.

Started off with a 7 but then it just didn't want to end, so dropped it down to a 6. As reasonably good as it is, I think it wore out its welcome.

After hearing this track on RP I tracked down the whole album. It's marvellous and all the folks in this trio are fantastic musicians. There's not a weak track at all and each player gets ample opportunity to shine. Really great stuff. Thanks RP.![clap](https://img.radioparadise.com/emoji/icon_clap.gif)

In a rolling auto not so well, but with headphones or good stereo and speakers for sure.

Based on the alarming frequency in which you antagonize other listeners, you were clearly bullied as a child.
You can get help for that but I'm sure it will be expensive.

Add Bela Fleck to this band and you get "Strength in Numbers " the band from the 90's who put out only 1 album. Also very excellen.

I've been from Ankara to Izmir and don't remember it sounding like this - more like grinding trucks, horns, muezzins, trucks and more trucks.
This is just too nice; though I like it fine, just sans the title.
