In Their Words: “When we settled on the theme and title of Jubilation for this new project (intended to be sort of an ‘answer’ to our last project, Tribulation), we knew exactly the direction some of the material needed to head. But, sometimes finding just the right pieces to put it all together can be a task! One day the hook, ‘Blue Ridge Mountain Baby,’ popped into my head out of the blue sky. In that instant, I could just feel what the finished song ought to sound and feel like… We just needed to actually write it… and then perform it! When it was time to record it, man, did the guys sure scald it! If ever a song felt like it belongs on an album called Jubilation, I think ‘Blue Ridge Mountain Baby’ does!” — Jim VanCleve, Appalachian Road Show
