The journey begins on a porch overlooking the Blanco River in the Texas Hill Country, where Andrew conspires with neighbor Ray Wylie Hubbard, who jumpstarts the proceedings the same way he always does any time he takes hold of a guitar - with a few soulful, swaggering blues licks. The arrangements are spare and all of the emphasis is on the playing and technique of these guitarists, including collaborations with Eliza Gilkyson, Dave Alvin, Tom Russell, Don Edwards and Washtub Jerry.

The presence of Albert Lee on "Coney Island Moon" will raise the eyebrows of all you country folk, but Hardin himself proves more than a match for his illustrious guest as he blazes through this uplifting album of instrumentals with his own breathtaking technique. Seamless pentatonic runs, nifty banjo rolls and flawless tremelo-picking are all delivered with a tasteful sense of melody and precision that'll have you quaking in your cowboy boots. Add some blues, Hawaiian and even jazz and you have a varied as wel as inspired guitar feast.
