BY HAL COTTRELL
Blue Storm provides us with a very pleasant mixture. The
songs go from a soulful version of the rock song Feel Like Makin’ Love to
a fast waltz-time version of the country hit Lucille to a bluesy version
of House of Gold. There are many appealing interpretations of traditional
bluegrass songs, but they do an excellent arrangement on Beulah Land with
a flute intro. Evan McGregor and Oscar Fish Studios did a wonderful job of
recording and mixing this new band from Sidney, Ohio. Just as a personal
preference, I like to see the liner notes mention who was playing which
instruments. Tracks include (I’ve Still Got) A Lot Of Leavin’ Left To Do,
Ninety-Nine Years, Life’s Highway, Before I Met You, Too Late For Goodbyes
and more. BMP
