Formerly banjo player for Alison Krauss and Union Station, Ron Block has returned to the solo career he began with 2001's FARAWAY LAND with the expansive DOOR WAY. A contemporary gospel album based on Block's bluegrass roots but incorporating some rock, jazz, and Nashville-style country influences, DOOR WAY is a very personal album that avoids the usual gospel standards in favor of a dozen seemingly autobiographical songs documenting Block's spiritual growth. Highlights include the unexpectedly rocking "Love's Living Through Me When I Do" and the more traditional acoustic bluegrass of "Along the Way."

Professional Reviews

No Depression (p.106) - "[The album] unfolds as an allegory for a believer's awakening and subsequent spiritual journey."
