Please rate this album:

This album is predominently made up of rock/pop covers, except for a big band jazz version of The Kink's Tired Of Waiting For You and a cover of The Clash's Train In Vain which is has a cajun/bluegrass feel.

Ralph is featured on Train In Vain on banjo and back-up vocals, but it's fairly mediocre and Ralph is fairly low in the mix. He does however contribute a short banjo break. Personnel on the track is not identified, but is likely to be:-

  • Dwight Yoakam: guitar, lead vocal
  • Ralph Stanley: banjo, vocal
  • Jim Christie: drums
  • Skip Edwards: keyboards
  • Scott Joss: fiddle, mandolin
  • Taras Prodaniuk: bass
