Description:
This is the third Big Barn Records release from Mars Arizona; a matchless and transcendent record. The majority of the album was recorded at Moondog Studio, Nashville (big thanks to Billy Block) by Tim Coats. David Dawg Grisman makes sparks fly from his mandolin on the opening track `Dirty Town,` resplendent in its identification of the wayward coping mechanisms of small town barfly alcoholics. His son Sam Grisman pushes the tune into the red line with his thundering upright bass. The genius of Al Perkins on pedal steel haunts `Circus,` a tune that shakes its head in disbelief at the freak show fairground bazaar that America`s politicians have constantly toured the highways of humanity with. Or so it seems. (Big Barn Records)
