Dave Mackenzie is extremely comfortable with the old ways. His sterling Old, New, Borrowed & Blue spotlights just 6 strings and one voice, recorded live at The Nest, Nashville, TN. Though he does a Furry Lewis cover and a few more oldies, the meat of this release is MacKenzies easy-rolling originals, sung in a weary voice a la J.J. Cale and loaded with poor man's poetry. MacKenzie's sharp wit is sometimes turned on himself. After he cuffs a few notes on one cut, he says, "This is the kind of guitar playing keeps Chet Atkins up at night...laughing like crazy." But if you ain't Atkins you're liable to find MacKenzie a spirited player and singer who mesmerizes throughout this truely fine set. - Blues Access, Spring 2000
