"I heard Laurie Lewis a few years ago at the Cambridge Folk Festival and really enjoyed her performance (as well as having her collaboration album 'Blue Roses') which led me to buy this CD. The album has a classic sound but with a clean and modern presentation - standouts are the great duet 'Goin' to the West' (the harmonies on this are top notch) and the Jeanne (sp?) Richie song about the coal mining 'Black Waters'. ***** out of ***** The guitar & string arrangements on this album is mesmerizing. It's been on my CD player since I bought it in May. Missing the KCLC Bluegrass show in St. Louis... cheers, pwb in Brussels"

"Laurie Lewis & Her Bluegrass is one of Laurie's best to date. I have had the good fortune to have been acquainted with Laurie Lewis for several years now. She has a lot of good CDs and songs recorded such as Texas Bluebonnets, The Bear Song,Going Up On The Mountain w/Kathy Kallick, Lost John w/KK, The Touch of The Master's Hand w/KK, Little Annie & Gonna Lay Down My Old Guitar w/KK.Who Will Watch The Home Place, Diamond Joe and many more. Laurie is also an excellent fiddler. From the CD at hand I have several favorites such as When I Get Home, great moving gospel, Tall Pines,Hard Luck And Trouble and Beyond The River Bend. I play Laurie Lewis regularly on my bluegrass show in Louisville, KY each Sunday night. My show is traditional and I often get requests for Laurie. This is an especially good CD from Laurie Lewis and is in the running for an award from IBMA 2000. As a bluegrass fan you would do well to add this to your collection. Keep them coming Laurie!"
