Works Songs from the this talented bunch from Minnesota, leads a life of its own. Leon Laudenbach who wrote 14 of the songs here explores different avenues and byways of everyday life. The opening track with dobro and bottleneck electric guitars creates a perfect inter-play that supports a song about a preachers advise. Ghost on the Courthouse Steps is a blues deversion on the plight of a homeless from the other side. Songs like Bent out of Shape, Sizemoligist and Bypass the Blues show the true grit of these players. For the Ladies is a compeling instrumental in the english folk tradition. Great harp playing on the majority of the tracks supplied by Mark (Sparky Anderson), who's style closely resembles Norton Buffalo, also Andy Dee adds slide and lap steel on a few of the tracks. Randy Mickelberg and Leon practice the art of guitar weaving(what ever the hell that means)listening is believing. It all leads to a very solid disc. ANOTHER NICE GIFT FROM JLJ!! TY FOR EVER!
