Audio Mixer: Gary Paczosa. Recording information: Emerald sound Studio, Nashville, TN (1999); Seventeen Grand Recording, Nash (1999). Photographer: Matthew Barnes. Alison Krauss is a genuine rarity: a bluegrass singer and fiddle player who achieved popularity without altering or commercializing her sound. On FORGET ABOUT IT, she again fuses bluegrass, country, and pop influences, covering unlikely tunes and making them sound fresh and new. Though there are very few true bluegrass tunes in this set, the bluegrass sound is here in full force. The close harmonies, Krauss` high, lonesome soprano, and the traditional-sounding dobro and fiddle are all at the heart of the sound here. The songs are mostly slow, subdued expressions of romantic melancholy and heartbreak. The musicianship is, as usual, both immaculate and inspired. Dolly Parton and Lyle Lovett show up to give harmony to the lovely closing track, "Dreaming My Dreams With You." FORGET ABOUT IT also contain some of Krauss` most memorable singing. A beautiful piece of work.

I like this album a lot, it makes me cry.

I was looking for the song she sang in the internet e-mail site called "Bridges" and didn't find it on this CD, but I did like the CD. I would still like to know the name of this song.
