1. Marty Stuart & His Fabulous Superlatives- Way Out West-
These days it’s rare when an entire album can transport you to a place or time, create strong visuals that are memorable and lasting. This is a record for headphones and to listen to the wonderful layering from Kenny Vaughn and Mr. Stuart. This is one of those records that you wished were longer, because you dont want the journey to end. So, we just keep playing it over and over. Now if country music isn’t for you, I invite you to give it a try anyway and take a moment to consider, this is not the canned country music coming out today, this is a true love letter to American music that will enrich your ear, soul and inspire your playing.
