Corbett, Tom
Tonight I Ride
Stories and snapshots are the essence of widely respected mandolinist/guitarist Tom Corbetts new album Tonight I Ride: open-hearted stories and fond snapshots of characters and scenes from the American West - some real, some imagined, all sensitively rendered by Corbetts soulful fretwork and other sublimely musical players who number among the West Coasts finest, including bluegrass legends Herb Pedersen and Bill Bryson, Los Lobos percussionist Victor Besetti, guitar goddess Nina Gerber, and others. The entire album is a crisply produced showcase for the witty and multitalented Corbett, whos been picking on bluegrass, newgrass and old-time tunes forever and working as a sideman for such artists as Robin & Linda Williams, The Dirt Bands John McEuen, and Social Distortion frontman Mike Ness.
