C'mon guys..
. this is a good one! "Beyond the Horizon" is a beautiful effort, full of southern spirit that stands proudly among the best ones from the band. All in all the main guys are gone forever and why should we blame Gray's job to keep the name of the band alive, and making good new music too?.


Excellent
It's an excellent CD given the bands history and sound. Agree with other reviews.


True to the tradition
The songwriting is strong throughout and two of the tracks were written by Toy himself. If Toy and Tommy Caldwell were still around I've got to believe that this outing would have their blessing. My personal two favorite tracks ("The Rain" and "Give It All You Got") were both written and sung by Chris Hicks, who has a total of 8 writing or co-writing credits on the cd. Doug Gray is in fine voice on this disc as is Hicks and the rest of the band. The playing is strong throughout, with flautist David Muse carrying on in the style originally established by Jerry Eubanks, and Doug Gray's nephew, Clay Cook, showcasing his incredible talents on a couple of the tracks, as well as co-writing two tunes with Chris Hicks. Original Tucker producer (from the band's glory days on Capricorn Records), Paul Hornsby, lends his keyboard talents to 8 of the tracks, greatly helping to retain the feel of the original MTB line-up. Grumpy Old Tuckerheads will no doubt complain that without a Caldwell in the group it ain't the Marshall Tucker Band, but this is a finely crafted album that is true to the tradition established by the original band and is deserving to be heard by Tucker fans of all stripes.


Marshall Tucker's Best Since 1983
On this one, singer/guitarist Chris Hicks shares lead vocals with Doug Gray, singing many songs on his own and giving the band a new voice while returning it to the old 70s sound of records such as the self-titled debut, A NEW LIFE and WHERE WE ALL BELONG. BEYOND THE HORIZON is Marshall Tucker's best album since 1983. Several songs are not so great, but the great ones make this a 5-star release.


still smoking
doug's vocals are in great shape and you dont have to worry about the next generation of tucker boys. this new cd has done the boys proud the great southern style is there the new with the old. THEY hold true to the toy caldwell sound and I AM very proud to say that this new cd is great not a bad song on the list i have been with the good old tucker sound for thirty years and they just keep moving along with the great sound that i love so much Thanks to MTB TAKE A LISTEN YOU WON'T BE SORRY THANKS SKEETGUN.
