The only thing I have to say on the topic is that I had heard someplace that the Ricky Skaggs and KY Thunder frequently use over-dubs / multiple takes and that seems to have tainted my listening to their music. I've heard them live and there's no doubt that his band can play and I'll be the first to say, as in the recent Yo-Yo Ma inaugural recording discussion, if you can play it once you can play it in my book (even if it took you 6 takes to get a keeper). All that being said, it does differentiate between the recordings we hear today in which recording time can be as cheap as the electricity it takes to run your MacBook and the recording days of old in which there were 5 guys crowding around a single microphone and recording time was a scarce commodity.
It very well could be that RS doesn't use multiple takes anymore than any other band in which case I don't mean to single them out unfairly.
