#1393 The Gordons (US) - Southern Illinois Bluegrass

A debut very similar to the Gordons' just-reviewed second album - plenty of wickedfast plucking, agreeable singing, a bouncing bluegrass backing. The main difference is the lack of a fiddle player - making for a thinner, more dust-and-sticks sound. I probably like it a bit better in isolation, though it does suffer, in this moment, from being the one I heard second 4/5
