Ricky Skaggs Artist Snapshot:

With a thorough knowledge of bluegrass and vintage country music, Ricky Skaggs helped bring back a sense of tradition and history to that scene during the 1980s. Skaggs has lent his guitar, mandolin, and fiddle talents--as well as his high-lonesome voice--to a host of country music greats including Johnny Cash, the Stanley Brothers, and Emmylou Harris, and has also proven to be a successful solo artist despite a penchant for the less commercial threads of the genre. After being dropped by Atlantic Records in the early '90s, Skaggs started the Skaggs Family label to release his own albums and nurture the careers of other traditionally minded country artists.

Review

No Depression (11-12/01, pp.119-20) - "...If Skaggs has his way, it will be hard to imagine the history of any future that doesn;t include talented musicians such as himself..."

Title Note

Ricky Skaggs & Kentucky Thunder includes: Ricky Skaggs (vocals, acoustic & electric guitar, mandolin); Paul Brewster (vocals, acoustic guitar); Darrin Vincent (vocals, guitar); Clay Hess (guitar); Jim Mills (banjo); Jerry Douglas (dobro); Stuart Duncan, Bobby Hicks, Andy Leftwich (fiddle); Mark Fain (bass); Erick Darken (percussion).

HISTORY OF THE FUTURE was nominated for the 2002 Grammy Award for Best Bluegrass Album.

Continuing his move out of the Nashville country-pop that made him a star and back into the traditional bluegrass that was always his first love, 2001's excellent HISTORY OF THE FUTURE is yet another fine bluegrass album by Ricky Skaggs and his band, Kentucky Thunder. Traditional enough to kick off with a new arrangement of the bluegrass standard "Shady Grove" and to close with the traditional folk tune "Roll In My Sweet Baby's Arms," HISTORY OF THE FUTURE is otherwise heavy on originals by Skaggs and members of his band, including the swell "Road To Spencer" and the rollicking train song "One Way Track."
