When I started playing the fiddle, I learned ‘Old Time Music’. After about 12 years, I joined a country band and learned to play country music. Although totally different than ‘Old Time’, it was a lot of fun and a whole new challenge. I fell in love with the ‘classic country’ sound of the fiddle & steel guitar in all those great old songs. I have gathered some of my favorite melodies and am pleased to present them to you in my own way.
I’d like to thank the gifted musicians for playing on this recording with me:
            Redd Volkaert & I played together for many years back in the 1980’s before he moved to the United States to play music for the likes of Ray Price, Merle Haggard, Brad Paisley and the list goes on. He has become a guitar hero to many, myself included and I’m honored to have him on this recording.
            Buzz Evans is a legend in the music business. Over the years, he has performed with great country artists as Tex Ritter, Ernest Tubb, Dick Curless and many more but is most proud of his 4 years playing with Thumbs Carlile. If you like steel guitar, you will enjoy Buzz’s musical talent. I’m thrilled to have him on this recording.

            Paul Dacier is one fine piano player. His sense of feel is so natural; it makes it very easy to play along with. Paul has recorded on 4 of my previous CDs and it always a pleasure to play with him.
