Includes liner notes by Ricky Skaggs.

BLUEGRASS RULES won the 1999 Grammy Award for Best Bluegrass Album. "Get Up John" was nominated for a 1999 Grammy Award for Best Country Instrumental Performance.

In the liner notes to BLUEGRASS RULES, Ricky Skaggs claims that due to his contractual obligations as a commercial country music artist, he was unable to release an album of bluegrass music, the style dearest to his heart. Now on his own label Skaggs Family Records, Skaggs takes to pickin' and singin' with an enthusiasm born of years of waiting. His fine backing band, Kentucky Thunder, kicks things off with smokin' licks over a pell-mell pace in the Bill Monroe cover "Get Up John."

The album follows with upbeat, traditional two and three chord tunes, such as "Think Of What You've Done," "Rank Strangers," and "Somehow Tonight," complete with infectious singalong choruses sweetened by high, tight harmonies. The instrumental jams, "Rawhide," and "Amanda Jewell," are particularly noteworthy, featuring superb fiddle, bango and guitar work, as well as Skaggs own mandolin playing. Nominated for a Grammy in 1999.
