Album Notes

Brooklyn, NY--The Bootleg Remedy officially released its self-titled debut CD in February, 2001, to wild acclaim in Brooklyn and Manhattan. The All Music Guide lauded the opus for finding "the crossroads where Louis Armstrong and Bill Monroe meet... Overall, a set of songs that fly by in just under 25 minutes but establish the Bootleg Remedy as one of the greatest Dixieland/old-timey revivalists of the early 21st century."

In addition to several original compositions by Gould, the Bootleg Remedy CD contains interpretations of the classic bluegrass song "Old Salty Dog Blues" and Bill Monroe's famous "Blue Moon of Kentucky." "I'm so glad they're here," raves Splendid e-Zine, "because these immortal cuts help make it astoundingly clear how good Gould's own compositions are. They basically match the covers for emotional depth... the Bootleg Remedy make it plain that old-time music (or long-forgotten genres) can always be resuscitated if one has the heart, the guts and the sheer joy to simply give it a go."

Digital City has praised the Bootleg Remedy for "the finest horn section in the city," while the New York Press proclaims simply that this acoustic septet are
"some of the best bluegrass revivalists in America today."
