Oh I *love* Diamond Rio, and I'm not scared to say it either. They are on one
hand the closest thing in Nashville to alt.country (and unfortunately on the
other hand probably the furthest from it <g>)
I think Jimmy Olander is such a cool guitarist, and Dan Truman is such a
swingy pianist, and Gene Johnson is a marvellous mandolin player. 'Poultry
Promenade' from their first album is still one of my favourite modern
instrumentals. I don't think they get half the credit they deserve from the so
called serious music press on account of their sometimes 'cheesy' material.
Any one else agree?
