When you possess a great pop voice, it's inevitable that you'll someday make a pop album, and Alison Krauss has finally made hers. Instead of bidding for radio airplay with the extravagant, extroverted pop of Shania Twain, Trisha Yearwood, or Celine Dion, Krauss has crafted an intimate, understated chamber-pop album reminiscent of Joni Mitchell's Blue or Rosanne Cash's Interiors. The material comes from such mainstream-pop writers as Michael McDonald, Todd Rundgren, Allen Reynolds, and Danny O'Keefe, but Krauss the producer gives the songs a distinctive spin. She layers the harmonies of her regular Union Station band, the Cox Family singers, pianist Matt Rollings, drummer Jim Keltner, and mandolinist Sam Bush to create a lush, hushed sound that's neither traditional bluegrass nor electric country-pop. Krauss multitracks her own fiddle parts and blends them with Jerry Douglas's Dobro to create an unorthodox string-quartet sound. In this setting her tender, translucent vocals capture that moment when a relationship is unraveling before the lovers are ready to let it go. --Geoffrey Himes

Country Music
"God bless Alison Krauss for her deep sense of country music roots and history, and her stubborn refusal to be stylistically bound by it."

People
"... much to admire, including Krauss's strong soprano voice, which has turned silkier over time, and her diverse song choices."

Customer Reviews

Excellent in every way
Great CD. Excellent show of talent and emotion. Good recording quality. Excellent songs and performance. Goosebumps!

My Favorite Alison Krauss CD
This is definately the most beautiful Alison Krauss album and I think her very best in terms of every song being great and consistant mood. Sometimes I prefer one mood on an album as opposed to a mix of moods/tempo.

Wonderful, it was everything that I imagined it would be.
The cd was in good condition as advertised. It arrived on time and I had no problems dealing with the supplier. Thankyou very much!
