The Old Dogs are Bobby Bare, Waylon Jennings, Mel Tillis, and Jerry Reed, four old-school country & western legends now rejected by a youth-obsessed Nashville. Refusing a rocking chair, these good old boys have fought back and made music for the mature, twang-lovin' audience they know is still huge. To wit, the 11 steel-guitar-driven cuts here, all from wacky songwriting legend Shel Silverstein, are aimed at the senior set. The 10 punch-line novelties ("I ain't too old to cut the mustard, I'm just too tired to spread it around") are joined by the bittersweet, and even wise, closing ballad "Time." The overdubbed crowd noise grows more than annoying and there isn't a note here that suggests you can teach old dogs new tricks. But this disc argues loud and clear that, by God, the old tricks are still plenty good enough. --David Cantwell
USA Today
It's a live-in-the-studio recording of 11 Shel Silverstein tunes that run from humorous ruminations on aging ("Still Gonna Die," "I Don't Do It No More") to a scathing commentary on Nashville....

Album Description
On Four On The Floor, (their tenth release and first as a quartet) their energetic mix of soaring fiddle playing and stirring pipes, punctuated with the pulse of djembe and conga, has audiences dancing in the aisles. The Dogs tour the globe from intimate clubs to international festivals, including a performance before England's Prince Charles, a confirmed fan. "Old Blind Dogs play with a compelling energy and intoxicating rhythm," says The Scotsman, "as players and audience seem to share a wild ecstasy of emotion."

Amazon.com's Best of 2001
Old Blind Dogs may flirt with modern harmonies and ethnic percussion on Fit?, but when they sing an old Robert Burns song like "Is There for Honest Poverty" in their thick Aberdeen accents, you know they are traditional Scottish musicians to the core. The Dogs mix old ballads like "Awa' Whigs Awa'," an 18th-century anti-British song, and "Reres Hill," which they perform with a Pentangle-like jazzy folk feel with lively sets of dance tunes like "Black-Haired Lad" and "Country Girl." The jigs and reels have a light, airy feel thanks to piper Rory Campbell, who eschews the more familiar Highland war pipes in favor of the smaller Border pipes, which have a softer, gentler tone. On Fit?, an expression of disbelief in their local Aberdeen dialect, Old Blind Dogs continue the tradition of high-energy playing and intensely felt singing that have made them one of the most popular contemporary Scottish folk groups. --Michael Simmons

Product Description
Theres something special about blues singer Robert Charels. His last album on Fountainbleu (Metropolitan Blue) was produced by blues legend Duke Robillard and featured members of Roomful Of Blues, B.B. Kings band, and other great musicians. For Roberts first new CD in six years, its more of the same: Famed blues star and guitarist Michael Hill (Alligator Records) serves as producer of Three Leg Dogs & Old Skool Cats, a new album as daringly different as its name. What do all of these famed roots stars see in Robert Charels? The same thing audiences throughout the U.S. have seen: Passion, style, and one of the most entertaining performers in blues today. Hill brings his fiery urban R&B sensibility to Charels already funky outlook on life, and the result is an exciting foray throughout all the styles of contemporary blues. Its time you found out what the biggest blues stars already know: Robert Charels is as good as it gets and Three Leg Dogs & Old Skool Cats is his best album yet!
