5 out of 5 stars Greatest Bluegrass Stars Come Out.......2005-01-24

The greatest bluegrass stars in history come out on this incredible album. The people at MCA Universal have put together the "best of the best" on this compilation of Grandpa Jones, The Osborn Brothers and Smokey River Boys hits.

The collection represents the "Biggest bluegrass stars of MCA Universal" all in one comprehensive purchase. This album is worth a fortune to a bluegrass audience, tuned in to the sounds of the greatest pioneers who stood on the stage of the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville.

Not only do you have a cut by Legends Hall Of Fame members, The Smokey River Boys, but you have music from all their contemporaries such as Buck Trent, Lester Flatt, Earl Scruggs, and others now in the Bluegrass Hall Of Fame.

This album is worth any amount of money to a collector of the great hits of some of bluegrass music's greatest stars.

Album Description

ABOUT GOR MKHITARIAN- YERAZ

Gor Mkhitarian's long-awaited debut solo album is finally here. Released on the upstart world/classical music label Pomegranate Music, Mkhitarian's album entitled, "Yeraz", has been hailed as one of the most anticipated independent world music releases of the year by several industry insiders. Produced by Raffi Meneshian and recorded in Armenia by Mika Margarian, "Yeraz" is a contemporary Armenian folk masterpiece consisting of 11 songs featuring two acoustic guitars, percussion, and a banjo. Mkhitarian penned 9 songs on the album while arranging 2 traditional Armenian folks songs including, "Gakavik", by Komitas.

With "Yeraz", Mkhitarian makes a case of writing the next chapter in Armenia's rich musical history by updating the sound and feel of the classic Armenian folk song. Gor gets down to basics by giving the listener meaningful lyrics, simple arrangements, and melodic hooks creating warm and full-bodied acoustic songs. It's Armenian music as never been heard before. Fresh, accessible, and ground-breaking are the only words to describe "Yeraz". Guest musicians include Aharon Stayman and Jason Demerjian.

5 out of 5 stars The Armenian Dave Matthews.......2003-01-10

This is a subtle, powerful, and enjoyable album that achieves greatness through the intellegence of the musicians. When I was first introduced to this album, I was immediately stuck by the thoughtful translated lyrics and the banjo. The acoustic flavor gives this album a folksy feel. I would say that "Yeraz" is a breakout album.

5 out of 5 stars Something old and something new.......2002-08-14

I discovered this CD from my friend Aaron Stayon who was in Armenia for two year with the Peace Core. While there he met singer/song writer Gor Mkhitarian and together they produced this album. The CD CD blends traditional Armenia music with rock and folk and has a modern feel. The musical style is influenced by Simon & Garfunkel, The Dave Matthews Band, and Bob Dylan. I highly recommended it.

            5 out of 5 stars Delightful recording.......2006-09-06

            Multi-instrumentalist Richard Tillinghast teamed with his friend Jason Russ on percussion on this CD. It is hardly a surprise that the song-writing is so interesting. Richard's father is a poet who taught at Clemson and his uncle is a much acclaimed and published poet as well. I have shared this recording with many of my baby boomer friends and they all love it but was surpised that my twenty something daughter and her younger sisters also were captivated by the recording. Richard's music is fresh and contemporary but has a feel of traditional Carolina mountain music. Whether on guitar, slide guitar or his 1924 Matin tenor banjo the sounds he gets out of the instruments is just a delight.
