Bruce Hornsby's ninth studio album, a collaboration with bluegrass legend Ricky Skaggs titled "Ricky Skaggs & Bruce Hornsby", marks the debut release for the duo's new musical project. The album features reworkings of Hornsby originals as bluegrass tunes, as well as a number of traditional songs and a Skaggs original composition. Worthy of note is the cover of "Super Freak" (the Rick James song), here turned into a bluegrass version.
