For the Jones Street
Boys, there surely is bluegrass and country music in them thar streets
of Brooklyn. As unusual as the locale might be, the sound of Overcome is
convincing enough. These 12 tracks aren’t designed for purists—Hammond
organ and drums make sure of that—but the quintet’s loose-limbed
down-home style works as well on original numbers like “Julia Belle” as
it does on shrewd takes of The Band’s “Twilight” and Bill Monroe’s
“Walls of Time.” Amid the clamor of New York City, the Jones Street
Boys have staked out a place of burbling mountain creeks and
honeysuckle breezes.
