Different Roads

Different Roads (2007) more music like this

by The Seldom Scene

The Seldom Scene held a pivotal position in the early- to mid-'70s bluegrass scene. The group's bluegrass style and song choices was more progressive than Bill Monroe's but never so adventurous as the New Grass Revival. In essence, the Seldom Scene split the difference, but thanks to the group's harmony, instrumental prowess, and John Starling's ...

Old Train

Old Train (1974) more music like this

by The Seldom Scene

By 1974, the Seldom Scene was one of the hottest progressive bluegrass bands on the D.C. circuit. Their fourth album, Old Train, shows why. The band confidently kicks off with the instrumental "Appalachian Rain" before delving into their trademark three-part harmony on Herb Pedersen's "Wait a Minute." On songs like "Wait a Minute" and "Different ...

Scenechronized

Scenechronized (2007) more music like this

by The Seldom Scene

In a way, it seems to make little sense to call the Seldom Scene "the Seldom Scene," because only one member -- banjoist Ben Eldridge -- is an original member; furthermore, while the band has retained certain characteristics over the last 30 years (the Dobro, for instance), there is no resemblance to the Starling/Duffey-led band of the '70s. ...

Daddies Sing GoodNight: A Fathers' Collection of Sleepytime Songs

Daddies Sing GoodNight: A Fathers' Collection of Sleepytime Songs (1994) more music like this

by Various Artists

This is a thoroughly charming, and occasionally heartbreaking, collection of children's bedtime songs performed from a father's perspective by an all-star cast of bluegrass and modern folk artists. There are one or two predictable standards, like James Taylor's "Sweet Baby James" (performed gently by the Seldome Scene) and Leon Redbone's rendition ...

Act Two

Act Two (1973) more music like this

by The Seldom Scene

The writing credits themselves tell an interesting story on an early Seldom Scene album. Names like Norman Blake, John Prine, Hank Williams, and Earl Scruggs show the eclectic nature of the band's repertoire. No matter what genre the song came from, however, the Seldom Scene put their distinct stamp on it. A bouncy "Hello Mary Lou," for instance, ...

Scene It All

Scene It All (2000) more music like this

by The Seldom Scene

With the gradual departure of most of its original members and the sudden and untimely death of mandolinist/singer/founder John Duffey in late 1996, one might forgive the Seldom Scene if it had just given up the ghost. But instead, the sole remaining original member (banjoist Ben Eldridge) gathered some of the more recent participants around him ...

Act 3 (1973) more music like this

by The Seldom Scene

By the time the Seldom Scene had recorded its first album in 1972, Act I, the band's essential elements were fully operational. John Starling's rich lead vocals, John Duffy's higher lead, and Mike Auldridge's dobro gave the band a distinct sound, while Ben Eldridge's banjo work, Duffy's fancy mandolin licks, and Tom Gray's acoustic bass reminded ...

Like We Used to Be (1994) more music like this

by The Seldom Scene

John Starling re-joined the Seldom Scene in 1994 to record an album that recalled the groups first lineup from 1971-1977 (minus bass player Tom Gray). Starling's vocals on "Grandpa Get Your Guitar" and "Almost Threw Your Love Away" carry the same solid smoothness of the early years. He also sings his share of sad songs of love lost and lives ...

Sugar Plums: Holiday Treats from Sugar Hill (1993) more music like this

by Various Artists

Most of this CD is imbued with soft, sublime sounds of the season, including Jerry Douglas's double-tracked dobro/guitar rendering of "Away in a Manger," Dan Crary's guitar and sleigh bells version of "What Child Is This?" and the stately bluegrass harmonies of John Starling, Larry Stephenson, and Rickie Simpkins on "Beautiful Star of Bethlehem." ...

Act 1 (1972) more music like this

by The Seldom Scene

The Seldom Scene's first three studio albums for Rebel are impeccable. Along with performers like John Hartford and the New Grass Revival, the Seldom Scene created quite a stir in the early '70s. While Act 1 included traditional pieces like "Will There Be Any Stars in My Crown" and "Summertime Is Past and Gone," it also drew material from folk and ...

Act Four (1978) more music like this

by The Seldom Scene

Listening to The New Seldom Scene Album in 1976, it seemed clear that the original lineup of the band was running out of ideas. By Act Four in 1979, lead guitarist/singer John Starling had been replaced by Phil Rosenthal, and the Seldom Scene had moved from Rebel to Sugar Hill. The band still possessed all of the qualities that had made it one of ...
