Don Stiernberg's Mandolin Restaurant
Originally released on (gasp!) cassette, this wonderful project sprang to life more than 25 years ago as mandolinist Don Stiernberg pursued a unique opportunity to not only explore an unusually wide range of material on both acoustic and electric mandolin, but also to bring together such master musicians as his mentor Jethro Burns, Sam Bush, David Grisman and Howard Levy, as well as the best of Chicago's jazz and acoustic scene.
Now digitally mastered for the first time, Mandolin Restaurant resonates with creative energy and ingenious playing, all wrapped in lush arrangements and a solid ensemble sound by one of the mandolin's greatest living protagonists.
