Though bluegrass singer/guitarist Del McCoury had been recording since the 1960s, it was the series of albums he made for Rounder Records in the `90s that cemented his reputation and gained him a wider audience. Subsequently, he crossed over into backing up Steve Earle, recording Richard Thompson songs, and otherwise mixing with the pop world. The period covered by HIGH LONESOME AND BLUE, though, finds McCoury and his stalwart band delivering hardcore bluegrass with a conviction and soulfulness that`s nearly visceral. Never shying away from the darker side of life, McCoury sings often of despair and stark realities while contrasting these bleak subjects with sparkling, up-tempo bluegrass runs that achieve a perfect artistic contrast. And even among tunes by such country legends as Bill Monroe and George Jones, McCoury`s own songs stand tall, delivered in the unmistakable voice that gives this worthy collection of his Rounder years its title.
