Review by Nicholas Moline

Tommy Jackson's album, Blackmountain Rag Sally Goodin, is a fantastic collection of traditional bluegrass and country tunes. The album features Tommy's signature fiddle playing, which is both energetic and full of soul. The songs are expertly arranged and performed, with each track showcasing Tommy's exceptional musical talent.

The album opens with the lively and upbeat "Blackmountain Rag," which immediately sets the tone for the rest of the album. Other standout tracks include "Sally Goodin," a classic bluegrass tune that features Tommy's impressive speed and dexterity on the fiddle, and "Devil's Dream," which showcases his ability to interpret and perform traditional tunes with style and flair.

Throughout the album, Tommy is accompanied by a talented group of musicians, including guitar, banjo, and bass players. The arrangements are tight and well-executed, with each instrument complementing the others perfectly. The overall sound is warm and inviting, and listeners will find themselves tapping their feet and humming along to the catchy melodies.

About Tommy Jackson

American country fiddler and composer, born March 31, 1926 in Birmingham, Alabama and passed away on December 9, 1979. Inducted into the The National Fiddler Hall Of Fame (2013). The most prominent fiddle player of his time, Tommy Jackson came to Cincinnati in the late 1940s with the Pleasant Valley Boys, which included Jerry Byrd, Louie Innis, and Zeke Turner. They worked on radio and TV at WLW, and as session musicians at King Records Studio and Herzog Studio. In Nashville, he played on bluegrass sessions with Bill Monroe, with Jim and Jesse, with Mac Wiseman, and he and Art Stamper played twin fiddles on the Osborne Brothers first MGM recording session in 1956. During the square dance era, he recorded numerous fiddle tunes on Mercury and Dot Records, often accompanied by Hank Sugarfoot Garland on mandolin. Jackson was also part of Ray Prices great Cherokee Cowboys band of the 1950s, where he originated the single-string style that has dominated country music fiddling ever since.
