STOMP DELUXE EDITION

Mike Compton & David Long

Whether it be bluegrass, old time, blues, gospel or ragtime, there is no finer practitioner of traditional roots music on the mandolin than Mike Compton of the Nashville Bluegrass Band. Widely acclaimed for his contributions to the ‘O Brother’ soundtrack and tour, he teamed up with David Long, a young gifted mandolinist and vocalist, in 2003. It seems only fitting that these mandolin masters of American music found their way to Dawg studios to record STOMP.

With tunes like Bill Monroe's "Evening Prayer Blues," "Ashland Breakdown," "Old Mountaineer" and "Tanyards" one hears the soulful essence of Monroe's musical wisdom channeled through this gifted duo and taken even a step or two further back in time. Original tunes by Mike Compton are featured throughout — the hypnotic "Big Indian Blues," the exciting down-home blues octave mandolin solo, "Stomp" and an octave banjo-mandolin solo, "Black's Run." David Long's composing talent is showcased on the moving "January Nightmare" and on "Centipede Hop," both tell the humorous story behind this lively collaboration.

Whether newly composed by either Compton or Long, or taken from ancient sources, STOMP is an expressive musical odyssey through the deep south circa 1930s and 40s, delighting the listener with a variety of vocals and instrumentals done the old-fashioned way!

This Deluxe Edition, available in Hi-Definition sound includes six previously unissued tracks from the sessions.
