Great album . She is at her best, as is her band. Toe-tapping enjoyment. The Balads are excellant as well. I would recommend this album to all my friends.
I am very impressed. Sound is really good for a live recording.
It's about time that the award-winning Alison Krauss and Union Station released a live album, and a double-CD doozy it is! Recorded in April, 2002 at the Palace Theater in Louisville, KY as part of their "New Favorite" tour, the album serves up 25 songs that mix newer material with older hits. One of the songs (Down to the River to Pray) was recorded live at Austin City Limits. This package is a true testament to the tightness of AKUS, and a live album like this clearly exudes musical energy as the band feeds off the enthusiastic response of a large appreciative audience. While applause can be slightly annoying, once the band launches into a song, there is little in the way of noise distraction and disruption with the exception of some minimal clapping along on "Bright Sunny South." The musicians, soundmen and recording engineer were all doing their jobs right and in professional workmanlike style on those two fateful days in Louisville. The band also has guest percussionist Larry Atamanuik on about half of the tracks. The appearance of this tasteful Nashville session drummer serves to reinforce the eclectic nature of this band's repertoire that is probably best classified as acoustic country, with occasional bluegrass selections. And, it is their instrumental virtuosity and vocal prowess that have personalized their sound and built their large fan base. Dan Tyminiski handles the lead vocals on four tracks, and he's probably at his soulful best singing a song like "The Boy Who Wouldn't Hoe Corn." Ron Block sings his own composition, "Faraway Land." Music arranging has always been a clear strength of this band, and I always especially enjoy hearing how the group capitalizes on Ron Block's versatility as both a guitarist and banjo-player. If only he could play both instruments at once in a live show like this. Four instrumentals are included. The only thing I occasionally miss in AKUS' sound is more mandolin, but Dan Tyminiski does pick that instrument on five tracks
EXCELLENT! What more can I say? Great idea for a Christmas gift. One of my favorite cds.
This was definitely a great purchase! I am a huge fan of this artist and was thrilled to see that Overstock provided numerous CDs of AKUS.
