5 out of 5 stars They are all fun .......2007-02-04

Okay so its like this,

I have been listening to rock and roll for 25 years

I work in an office, do the "cube life", sitting at a PC for most of the day, working on my own, popping out to get liquids or drain liquids, chat some, that's the life. Now this ipod deal comes along a few years ago. Only, if your going to listen to music all day, you just cant listen to real pure rock and roll all day, you just cant. I don't care if your homeless sitting in a park all day with an ipod on, you just cant listen to real hard rock and roll for hours and hours at time all day everyday.

Classical puts me to sleep. I can handle some of it in the morning, ease into the day, but not allot of it. Pop I don't care for. Country singing about my dog had an affair on my wife doesn't cut either, what did I just say? Anyway, and Rap is out. Opera, No. So what to do?

Well thanks to my Dad, who used to watch Hee Haw all the time when I was growing up, and man did I hate it that show! Even today I seen some of it not long ago, its corny country stuff, but when Roy Clark comes on and solos for a song, then man always caught my attention. He was flat out good. But still I would "never" and have never owned a bluegrass cd. Get real!

But then, a friend, listening to me talk of my search to get some kind of music going for the day, loaned me a String Cheese Incident CD, an On The Road 3 cd set, and said just try it for awhile. Let it grow on you. What do you have to lose? Well yep I ended up submitting to it, and then really liking it. Before long I was walking around the office humming along, co workers going what you got playing man?? So having remembered seeing these Pickin' on cd's before, I said well why not try it, so I started off with one, right away started laughing and laughing good not at it. Now mind you no way would this happen up till a few years ago. Getting older? I don't know, many people are born and raised on this stuff. Its all in how you approach it. And I will tell ya what, that was a couple years ago and 6 pickin' on cd's later, I am so much more relaxed at work now. What I didn't notice before was music and singing along with it ALL day works on you more than you realize. Just having some "cruising tunes" playing with no singing really is relaxing. I don't have this playing all day, but its taking up a couple hours a day. Some more String Cheese cd's. And I will sooner or later just end up getting everyone of these pickin' on cd's. You see its not all about "oh this one doesn't jam enough" or the other one is better than this one. Nah. If you like Rock, and don't want to listen to it all day, then get used to these trust me, I did and its worth it. I still laugh at dif times playing them. And now some coworkers and friends have them loaded up also. I still have all the "real" bands loaded into my ipod, never giving up on Classic Rock and Roll, ever!

Lastly, I am not someone who sells these CD's. I actually am very picky if you read my reviews, and look at my Amazon name! and flunk so much stuff that's out there. Believe me this has caught me off guard. Just thought I would let anyone know that is searching for a new way listen to the day to try it out a bit. Give it time. Don't just listen partly or once then blow it all off, scoff and go Sacrilege! For I did before, but now a convert, and after a couple years of it, I get it, and will be enjoying these for years to come, just like the real rock and roll at times. I have posted this review of the cd's I have so far.

Good luck. Have a great day ya all.

Oh no, I am talking hillbilly already!

5 out of 5 stars GREAT BLUE GRASS MUSIC!!.......2006-08-05


NASHVILLE SUPER PICKERS ARE THE BEST! CHECK OUT -Picking On - Bruce Springsteen -BORN TO RUN-it is Fantastic!

5 out of 5 stars Wow.......2000-12-13

A fabulous twist on classic Eagles songs. The Nashville Superpickers stir up awesome sounds at record-breaking speed. Even the slower tracks are magical and a delight. This is bluegrass meets rock, at its best. Truly an out-of-this-world musical feast and a must for bluegrass fans as well as Eagles fans.

5 out of 5 stars Nashville Superpickers are GREAT.......1999-06-12

If you like the Eagles AND you like Bluegrass, you will LOVE this CD!

5 out of 5 stars a winner-Eagles songs & good bluegrass.......2005-10-18

so glad I happened onto the pickin' on series. am recent convert to bluegrass (now a devotee)..big fan of strings...and to hear my favorite Eagles this way is a real treat. I don't understand people who listen to this album and expect it TO BE the Eagles. this is a wonderful TRIBUTE to thier songwriting & I'd like to thank everyone responsable for it.

5 out of 5 stars Don't miss the point.......2004-04-14

The whole Pickin' on series is a treat for me, but Pickin' on the Eagles is one of my top choices. Its the Eagles put to Bluegrass. Don't miss the point. Hotel California just ignites with passion and excitement. Already gone is a toe tapping masterpiece. Peaceful Easy Feeling is just that, a great combination of the bluegrass instruments arranged perfectly. Lyin' Eyes is another great arrangement. The Eagles music lends itself easily to the Bluerass sound and Pickin' On set the Eagles to the number one or two spot of my collection.

1 out of 5 stars There ain't no Eagles in here!.......2002-03-19

I received this as a gift. These guys are pretty good at picking but it is not the Eagles.
It is a bunch of guys who apparently can't write their own songs so play someone else's songs.
They apparently also can not sing so this is just the music without words.

The gift giver was unhappy to find out it wasn't really an
Eagles CD (the phrase 'a tribute' was covered by the price sticker) and no one lets you return an opened CD.

What a waste of money.

2 out of 5 stars Surprisingly Soul-less.......2001-06-20

Received CD as a gift, and never returned it. The best songs are when the banjo and fiddle take the songs in a direction that the Eagles never intended to go. 'New Kid In Town' is a unintentially funny song that is probably my favorite on the album.

1 out of 5 stars Dissapointing.......1999-07-09

Amazon preview did not adequately describe this CD for what it is: guitar and banjo picking and twanging period.
