Description:

Randy Travis is generally credited with spearheading the New Tradtionalist country revolution, but it was Ricky Skaggs`s Epic Records debut WAITING FOR THE SUN TO SHINE that fired one of the very first shots. In his late 20s when the album was released, Skaggs was already a seasoned veteran of the Stanley Brothers, the Country Gentleman, and Emmylou Harris`s Hot Band. He brings his wealth of experience to bear here, delivering a completely assured, easy-flowing album that sounds both firmly traditional and refreshingly contemporary. On songs such as the title track and the chart-topping "Crying My Heart Over You," Skaggs` tenor is as pure and strong as Kentucky moonshine, and his virtuoso, multi-instrumental picking is the perfect complement. Released at the height of the URBAN COWBOY-inspired commercialization of country music, WAITING FOR THE SUN TO SHINE was a radical and important album that is also simply good ol` country music.
