. It 77i? Scene, the Seldom Scene's long-awaited
new release, faithfully fulfills hard-core blue-grass
fan expectations of beautiful three-part harmonies
and amazing breaks and also offers some nice
surprises.
The best surprise is the emergence of guitarist,
singer and songwriter Phil Rosenthal. He sings lead
on most of the songs; four are Rosenthal originals.
Rosenthal's compositions, two gospels and two love
related numbers, demonstrate his command of a
key Seldom Scene skill the ability to turn hard
times and unhappiness into strength and energy.
For example, the first line of his "Winter Wind," "I'm
here all alone in a valley of stone," conjures a deslo
ate image, but a brisk tempo and Rosenthal's force
ful vocals drive the song, making the sadness trium
phant. Rosenthal also steps out instrumentally. He took
only one or two split breaks on the Scene's previous
album, but At The Scene features Rosenthal's fluid
triplety style on several songs.
"Born of the Wind," a fine example of controlled
bluegrass frenzy, showcases each band member's
instrumental talents. From bassist Tom Gray's wild
man intro to Ben Eldridge's ominous chromatic
banjo run ending, the pace is feverish. In between,
John Duffy's spirited mandolin break and Mike Aul
dridge's dobro work complement the tune's free-blowing-wind
theme.
Gospel enthusiasts will find much to like on At The
Scene. The album boasts three excellent gospels:
Rosenthal's "Open Up The Window, Noah," "The
WTeary Pilgrim," and "Peaceful Dreams." Those music
lovers suspicious of religious material need not
shrink from the album, though. The band's religious
songs are not the fire-and-brimstone kind. "Peaceful
Dreams," for example, celebrates the handing down
of culture through stories and songs.
Appealing technical aspects of bluegrass gospels
four-part harmonies, staggered singing, full church
choir background "oohs," and a cappella choruses
are expertly handled by the band. Gray's rich bass
voice and Duffy's legendary tenor make Seldom
Scene gospel tunes an event.
The emotional charge and sustained notes of
staggered gospel choruses allow Duffy to get funky
and soulful, a dramatic departure from his usual
studio album reserve. Duffy's funk and humor are
also let loose on several mandolin breaks; sparse,
discordant melodies are a Duffy trademark.
The entire band gets a chance to reveal its sense of
fun and humor on the album cover, one sure to rank
in the all-time top-five of bluegrass album covers.
An entertaining cover and the usual high quality
Seldom Scene musicianship make "At The Scene" a
must-have for every bluegrass fan.
