THE
GREERSScorched Heart & Ashes
BY SAMANTHA STURM
The Greers form an exceptionally great bluegrass group. Their harmonies blend together in pure vocal glory. Don Grahlherr does an excellent Buck Owens song, Streets Of Bakersfield, and amazes listeners. Carla and Marla Greer have some of the best female vocals going right now and their voices are about as pure as they come.
Also on this album is a song written by Porter Wagoner entitled Right Combination, which is also wonderful to the ears. No one could ask for a better bluegrass album - great vocals, wonderful musicians and an all-around catchy group. Special fiddle guest Robert Bowlin makes this even better. He adds some kick that tops this album off. Their sound is more traditional as opposed to a lot of the more contemporary things that are coming out right now and it’s just what bluegrass music needs.
