Binding: Audio CDEAN: 0011661032521 Label: Rounder / Umgd Manufacturer: Rounder / Umgd MPN: 610325 Number Of Discs: 1 Publisher: Rounder / Umgd Release Date: February 07, 1995 Studio: Rounder / Umgd Editorial Review: Amazon.com essential recording: A poll-winning fiddler since her teens, Alison Krauss was an established bluegrass star when her label persuaded her to step out from her usual projects with Union Station, her crack band, and sanction this compilation of various band and solo guest performances. The ploy worked, yielding a wonderful, odds-beating crossover hit with Krauss's cover of "Baby, Now That I've Found You," a carousing late-'60s pop chant transformed into a delicate, vulnerable declaration of love. Focusing on Krauss's lovely, yearning soprano, the track elevated the musician above her resolutely democratic role in her quintet, catapulting Krauss to the biggest bluegrass success story in over 30 years. Krauss has stayed true to her bluegrass roots, as well as to Union Station, but this cross-section of contemporary bluegrass songs, joyous gospel, and canny rock covers testifies to the young artist's luminous appeal. --Sam Sutherland Average Rating:
 Rating: - Queen Creek Cattle Company Loves Alison KrausAlison's perfect and soft voice is exceptional! My favorite song on this album is "When You Say Nothing at All" so there was no hesitation in chosing this song for our wedding.

When I reached the rose-adorned wedding arch, I turned ...

I could not find this CD anywhere and as the one song was performed at my son's wedding, he wanted to get it for his new wife! Again, Amazon came through. Rating: - A Living LegendAlison Krauss is one of my favorite bluegrass singers, and arguably one of my favorite singes period. She shows with this album that she has range, as a wide variety of song types has made its way onto this CD. 1. Baby, Now That I've Found You: This has a pop sound of the 80's and still holds true to her bluegrass roots. It reminds me of other pop songs of the time. 2. Oh, Atlanta: By far my favorite track on this CD. The quick bluesy, jazz sound is unique. I have not heard ...

In particular, "Oh Atlanta", track 2, is my absolute favorite; she really shines on this song. Love her! Rating: - Just Great!!!I discovered Alison Krauss listening to her latest CD with Robert Plant (2007). I was impressed by her voice, and wanted to explore previouse releases. This CD is beautiful!. The matching between her clear voice, coupled with the playing by Union Station is great. I found myself playing this CD again and again!!. Some of the songs that stand out are, / Baby, Now that I've found / Tonight I'm Lonely Too. (beautiful, just beautiful). / I will (yes from Lennon and Paul McCartney) ... Read More |
