Free Music Notes for WheelsFree Music Review: Dan Tyminski "Wheels" Not to Miss Hit: 5 Stars
Twelve songs with narratives ranging from couple feuds, to life in the country vibrate throughout Tyminski's second solo album. Two items were already heard on other Tyminkski editions, but the ten remaining are definitely worth the purchase - the gentle and expressive voice of Dan Tyminski, the banjo rythmns provided by friend Ron Stewart who also plays fiddle on this album and the familiar pulsing bass of co-artist Barry Bales from Union Station. Other fiddle, dobro and voices are added by Justin Moses who makes his entry into the fan universe of these bluegrass stars with finesse and significant personal talent. There are some amazing mandolin passages woven throughout the collection performed by Adam Steffey. The result of this exceptional collaboration creates a tight and precise bluegrass sound with virtuoso music and highly emotional narratives. A wonderful gift for people of any age, a touching contribution to bluegrass history and a significant musical accomplishment. A must have for fans. Bravo to these wonderful musicians!
Free Music Review: WOW!!!!!!!! WONDERFUL! EXCELLENT!!!!!!!!! Hit: 5 Stars
I heard "Heads You Win, Tails I Lose" one a.m. as I was driving to work and knew I HAD TO HAVE THIS CD. It arrived today and I could not wait to listen to it. I was NOT disappointed one single bit! I love it! Dan's voice is magnificent and the vocalists appearing on this CD with him are perfect for harmonizing with him. The musicians are wonderful also......"some mighty powerful pickin'" is heard on this CD. Each song is actually great. I bought it for the one song thinking the rest would be a dud and I could not have been more wrong. The song titled "How Long Is This Train" actually made me cry, it is so beautiful. I can't imagine anyone not enjoying this CD. After listening to it only one time as we drove along, my husband asked if he could borrow it do burn a copy for his vehicle! I love, love, love this CD! Thank you, Dan Tyminiski!
Free Music Review: While Alison is away Dan Will play Hit: 5 Stars
With or without Alison Krauss Dan Tyminski is one of,if not the best bluegrass artists today,
This cd is his best to date, not a bad track on it,in fact I would give each and every track 5 stars.
The opening track "Wheels" gets you in the bluegrass mood and it never lets you down. Also included is the track "It All Comes Down To You", if you recall Dan sang this song on the "New Favorite" cd with Union Station and I think this version has a bettet feel to it.
All in all a 5 star cd from a 5 star man (and band),not forgetting,Barry Bales,Adam Steffey,Ron Stewart and Justin Moses.
Plus you get Ron Block on 2 tracks, now that is a bonus.
If you are a Union Station fan this cd is for you.
If you are a bluegrass fan this cd is for you.
If you love music played at its very best, then this cd is for you.
Free Music Review: DTB Rocks... Hit: 5 Stars
I don't buy many CDs these days because you can get exactly the cuts you want on iTunes. Buy this CD today- the whole friggin' thing!
You WON'T hear better singing, backup AND lead banjo, mandolin chops and lead, fiddling and of course anything better than the metronome Bales.
I came out of my seat on several tunes, most notably the old Del recorded tune 'Who Showed Who.' It could not have been done better and capture that old arrangement of Del's. Another killer tune, 'Heads You Win, Tails I Lose' will be this year's parking lot fave at Galax I bet!
If you're into Grass at all, this is an ABSOLUTE must have.
Free Music Review: Great Listen Hit: 5 Stars
Dan Tyminski has created quite a name in the world of bluegrass, especially through his work with Alison Krauss and Union Station, and his vocals on the "O Brother" soundtrack. "Wheels" adds to his growing body of solo work, and is certainly a strong addition. Songs of travel, songs of longing, songs of broken hearts and spurned love, quiet ballads and peppy shuffles, sad pinings and humorous 'Dear John' letters, this album has it all. This is what Country Music is supposed to be.
