ANY OLD TIME was nominated for the 2004 Grammy Award for Best Traditional Folk Album.

Jimmie Rodgers, the "Singing Brakeman" who helped invent country music as we know it today, was born in Meridian, Mississippi in the 1890s. Folk-rock singer/songwriter Steve Forbert was born in the same town some six decades later, and the influence of Rodgers was seemingly not lost on him. After numerous albums of his own wry, poetic songs, Forbert decided to take time out to pay tribute to the elder Meridian man with ANY OLD TIME. Wisely, Forbert doesn't try to come off 100 percent "authentic," so there's no uncomfortable retro tint here. Neither does he tart things up in ill-fitting contemporary arrangements. Instead, he leads a mostly acoustic band through some of Rodgers's best songs, from the minor-key plaint "Gambling Barroom Blues" to the amiable hobo tale "Waiting on a Train." Forbert's throaty warble serves the down-home feeling of the songs well, and his band serves tradition without being shackled by it.
