Review by Ken Dryden
While mandolin master David Grisman and the equally talented guitarist Tony Rice may be better known in the world of bluegrass, jazz fans need to check out Tone Poems, an excellent collection of mandolin/guitar duets, performed with different vintage instruments on each track. The improvising by both men is never less than brilliant, transforming traditional folk tunes like "Grandfather's Clock" and "I Am a Pilgrim," plus the unlikely "O Solo Mio," into masterpieces. The lone track that's very familiar to jazz listeners is "Swing '42," played very convincingly by two men who are well-versed in jazz even if they don't play it exclusively.

Reseña de Ken Dryden
Mientras que el maestro de la mandolina David Grisman y el igualmente talentoso guitarrista Tony Rice pueden ser más conocidos en el mundo del bluegrass, los fanáticos del jazz necesitan ver Tone Poems, una excelente colección de dúos de mandolina y guitarra, interpretados con diferentes instrumentos antiguos en cada pista. La improvisación de ambos hombres nunca es menos que brillante, transformando en obras maestras las melodías folclóricas tradicionales como "Grandfather's Clock" y "I Am a Pilgrim", además de la improbable "O Solo Mio". El único tema que es muy familiar para los oyentes de jazz es "Swing '42", tocado de forma muy convincente por dos hombres muy versados en jazz aunque no lo toquen en exclusiva.
