MARTY STUART —GHOST TRAIN THE STUDIO B SESSIONS (Sugar Hill)

www.martystuart.net

Marty Stuart’s debut on Sugar Hill records differs little from previous efforts from this traditionalist. Only this recording is better than most any he has made. Other than his concept album ‘The Pilgrim’ I hasten to add, a record that had long been indelibly etched in my… Continue

PAUL BURCH —STILL YOUR MAN (Ramseur Records)
