Statman's Eclectic Acoustic Delight
5 out of 5 stars

Fantastic diverse music, if you're into mandolin, and fresh acoustic tunes you're in for a treat with this album, occasionally venturing into jazz, sometimes folky, other times bluegrassy with a hint of Klezmer mixed in. Solid guitar work too. Captivating pieces by Andy Statman. Well-recognized in the genre but maybe not the easiest to come by, grab it if you spot it.
