Description:

Even those who don`t instinctively like bluegrass will have a hard time ignoring the measure of Alison Krauss`s talent. With an angelic, elastic voice that seems perfectly suited to the music, and her spectacular fiddle playing, Krauss has had a hand in revitalizing the genre and enjoyed popularity with bluegrass and mainstream audiences alike. I`VE GOT THAT OLD FEELING, Krauss`s third outing for Rounder Records, released in 1990, was also her first Grammy-winner.
Lilting dobro, banjo, mandolin, and sweet harmonies flank Krauss throughout these 12 tracks that range from ballad-like sway ("It`s Over") to mid-tempo bounce ("One Good Reason") to chugging foot-tappers ("Dark Skies"). The album is also notable for its merging of traditional bluegrass roots with pop accessibility, pointing the way for Krauss`s future releases and eventual commercial breakthrough. The band`s down-home technical skills are unassailable, as "Will You Be Leaving" proves (with the banjo, mandolin, and fiddle lines on this song giving Flatt & Scruggs a serious run for their money). Above all, it is Krauss`s subtlety and emotion that gives these tracks heart, making this disc the first in a string of the artist`s defining releases.
