The Promised Land
Del McCoury has taken a cue from other bluegrass stars on his 2006 release and put out a gospel album, The Promised Land.
Nashville-based Del McCoury band add quartet harmonies to acoustic arrangements with interesting, dynamic instrumentation. McCoury's high pinched tenor leads, but the vocals of sons Ron and Rob McCoury and fiddler Jason Carter add depth and musicality.
The band has a new bassist, and Alan Bartram proves to be up to the challenge standing shoulder to shoulder with this collection of virtuosos. The album features new and obscure Christian tunes rather than standard hymns, but the McCoury Band manage to make the songs their own, and to their credit make them sound like standards.
