PICKIN' ON Series.
After the loss of Martin Haerle, there was an air of uncertainty regarding the future of CMH Records. That began to fade as Martin’s son David carried the company into the new decade with CMH’s creation of the Pickin’ On Series in the early 1990’s. Born out of David’s love of rock music and admiration for the virtuosity of Bluegrass musicians, the Pickin’ On Series was the best Bluegrass pickers out of Nashville and California performing instrumental tributes to the biggest and best-loved artists in rock music. Though it started modestly in 1993 with the release of Pickin’ On The Movies, tributes to The Beatles and Eagles soon followed and by 1997 the Pickin’ On Series was on fire. The release of Pickin’ On The Grateful Dead brought CMH a true hit and the series regularly dominated Bluegrass music charts with distributors clamoring for more. Excited with this success, CMH’s team continued cutting Pickin’ On hits and looking for innovative ways to keep the music fresh. Iron Horse, Cornbread Red, and The Infamous String Dusters are just a few of the bands that have become the voices behind the series in addition to longtime star producers and players such as David West and Mark Thornton. At the same time, the series was broadening the reach of its repertoire, with successful tributes to modern and alternative artists like Modest Mouse, Green Day, and Mumford And Sons. The Pickin’ On Series continues to thrive with one hand in traditional Bluegrass and the other in popular music, ready for the next chance to create innovative Bluegrass music. Pickin' On is a series of rock and country tribute albums performed in a Bluegrass style. The records are released by CMH Records. The albums are recorded by Bluegrass studio musicians for example Dennis Caplinger playing all instruments. PICKIN' ON ZEPPELIN: A TRIBUTE is a tribute album to Led Zeppelin consisting of twelve of their songs replayed in a Bluegrass style. It is a part of the Pickin' On… series. It was released on 22nd August 2000. PICKIN' ON ZEPPELIN: A TRIBUTE is a continuation of the quirky tribute series from the CMH label that applies Bluegrass instrumentation to classic rock tunes. The music of Led Zeppelin translates to this form better than most of the previous attempts, but is still recommended for Zeppelin fanatics only. PICKIN' ON ZEPPELIN: A TRIBUTE takes stab at twelve tracks from Led Zeppelin's blues-rock anthems and applies Bluegrass arrangements to them, managing to work outside of a one-time curiosity listen. Songs translate well into this genre with the implementation of mandolin, five-string banjo, dobro, and fiddle. The most interesting tracks are “Kashmir,” “Black Dog,” and “All My Love”. Be warned! This album contains explosive jams, breathtaking solos and mystifying breakdowns in which you are guaranteed to loose yourself. This is Bluegrass tribute to the 70's heavy metal band, taking on the band's best-loved hits, proving that, whether hillbilly or head-bangin', the song does indeed remain the same.
