Hi All
According to Barry, the new album was orginally scheluded for an August release, but the band apparently felt that a few of the cuts were weak and they decided to put a hold on it until they found new (better) material. I think it is wonderful for a band who have been together for so long, to not rest on their laurels and put so much work into making a album . AKUSfJD are a shining example to all who aspire to greatness.
I found this info on the Bluegrass Blog site. All the Best
