Jamie Dailey and Darrin Vincent were in-demand bluegrass session players who worked with the likes of Ricky Skaggs and Doyle Lawson before venturing out as a duo, modeling themselves on classic genre duos the Louvins, the Delmores, and the Monroes, floating out high lonesome harmonies over crisp, professional playing. This set, available for the moment only at Cracker Barrel Old Country Store, finds them bringing fresh bluegrass arrangements to a dozen Statler Brothers classics. It's a marriage born in bluegrass heaven, somehow sounding old and new at the same time, the kind of perceived nostalgia that bluegrass is built to deliver. ~ Steve Leggett
