Tommy : a bluegrass opry

"The quintet plays it straight, clearly taking pains to work out arrangements and vocals to best reflect the serious, somewhat murky intent of the expansive, unique rock opera epic and avoid the novelty status that is all but built into the concept ... Especially impressive is the Hillbenders' vocals (not credited by song) which capture the nuances that made those of Roger Daltrey and Pete Townshend so dynamic on the 1969 double vinyl release. Fans of Tommy who also lean to bluegrass are obviously the primary audience for this project. But even those new to the Who's classic will appreciate this romp".
