Review As usual, Crockett's music walks the fine line, celebrating wonder without sentimentalizing it. Acoustic music driven by his stellar guitar work. - Brendt W. Waters -- Lighthouse, June 1995 Billy, the gentle genius, has won my ear and heart yet again with this fine long-awaited project on his own Walking Angel label. -- Bernie Sheahan, CCM, April 1995 Graceful melodies and pointed but non-preaching lyrics have won him a following among folk fans who adore Pierce Pettis and Bruce Cockburn. -- The Dallas Morning News, Jan 12, 1996 Whether you're a Billy aficionado or you thought Crockett was king of the wild frontier, Red Bird Blue Sky is well worth your ear. A special nod goes to "Thankful Boys and Girls," which sings with simplicity and richness. Jim Rommel's accordion and Crockett's discovery of the mandolin add a charming new dimension to an already ripe project. Crockett never disappoints on guitar. -- Melissa Riddle, CCM, May 1995 Product Description Warm and joyful acoustic music of faith. Real-life affirming songs delivered with a wink. Guitars and percussion move seamlessly with lyric and harmony in honor of the simple things. This album delivered five charted singles to the Christian music genre.
