Richard's vocals are exhilarating, his lead guitar breaks phenomenal. Add to that the impressive, solid rhythm and unbelievable lead guitar of Wyatt Rice - famous with the Rice Brothers and the Tony Rice Unit - and you can't get better guitar playing!
Dan Menzone - a New England bluegrasser for years - joins them in sunny, Lexington Kentucky - adding the solid banjo playing he is known for.

think about this guys if some kid see rickhard and is inspried to play bluegrass acoustic music whats wrong with that tony does not make that many apperarences any more.

[gerrycu]

well I think this guy plays and sings great

Richard worked with us in 2008, doesn't matter what he does, he's still a great musician all around.  Not a better guy around either.

@Ibanezmiller Nah, i think you are thinking of a Different Richard Bennett ^^

[RSNflatpickn]

good job dont matter what anyone thinks most peaple cant play like either one so i say good job to him and wyatt

[Ibanezmiller]

@BATENKILL

I might be mistaken, but isn't Richard Bennet playing guitar with Mark Knopfler? excellent acoustic and electric guitarist.

Well If you look at my videos, Richard actually lives here now, and he says he is not trying to copy any one, He HAS hung around tony and Wyatt for like, YEARS and they are both his best friends, so I mean...if you hang around some one for years, you start to catch on, He isn't trying to copy anything.

[BATENKILL]

I know Wyatt is his brother but Richard trys to sing just like him and pick like him but I'm not saying he's bad now I'm just saying there is really no need do everything like Tony...Let it be known now that I'm bashing Richard he is a great guitar/singer

[hosscat25]

Uh...Maybe I missed your point...(1st comment) Were you talking about Richard or WYatt?

BTW...Everybody has a right to their opinion, I just missed it on these two comments.

[BATENKILL]

He is very good I like Richard alot though

[hosscat25]

Also, I cant remember seeing Tony in the past 15 years without a coat and tie. Maybe he has a blue shirt, but so do I.

Now, if you are talking about the other guy,,,you know they are brothers, right?

In truth, what guitarist has not been influenced by Tony? Bennett is just too good at his own thing to be put in this small box...but it's my opinion.
