Reischman & The Jaybirds
On That Other Green Shore
"For their seventh recording, John Reischman chose material to showcase the signature Jaybirds blend of old-time and bluegrass music, but this time with an added emphasis on the bluesier side of bluegrass and a surprise foray into the Beatles songbook for good measure. The instrumentals, include some new tunes, both traditional and up tempo along with a waltz and a rollicking old-time tune -Katie Bar the Door. Along with several original vocals by Jaybirds member, a selection of gospels and covers rounds out the recording. And finally, a song from the Beatles, a lesser-known gem from the "Let it Be" album which our friend Butch Baldassari always said would make a good bluegrass cover - Two Of Us. Sure enough! "
