I saw Alison and Robert Plant at the NOLA Jazz Fest a year ago.  It was literally AMAZING!  Although she has some kinda strange otherworldly gaze that is a little disturbing.

I have seen Alison Krauss & Union Station 4 or 5 times live and would see them again in a heartbeat.  Simply mesmerizing performances!

I absolutely love this song and the album New Favourite i first heard it on.  What a nice good morning.

I love Alison Krauss. No, seriously, I LOVE her. I have a huge crush on this woman. Besides an incredible voice, sincere humility, and amazing musicianship, she knows how to pick an ensemble of peers better than anyone in the acoustic space.

Once again, I ask you:

If reincarnation is the way of things, WHAT, dear God (in some previous life) did this woman do that was so to your liking that she has gained immunity from Murphy's Law?

I'm not sure what you mean... 

Do you hate The Dead?  Or Alison Krauss?  I don't hate either really... but I give props to The Dead WAY before I would heap praises on AK&US.

I find this much much better than the stuff she did with Plant.  I don't know why but those recordings are not appealing to me.

Why is it that when you mix this woman's talent with Robert Plant the music sounds like shyte?
Traveling Wilbury syndrome?
Seriously, I'm not one for country but she has the voice of an angel!

Alison Krauss and Union Station is an amazing group of musicians. This song, scratch that, this whole albums explains that. {#Dance}

Far, FAR superior to her stuff with Robert Plant (and I'm a big Zep fan).

I'm not a big bluegrass fan when it comes to recorded music though I respect it and the players, but it is a fun musical form to listen or dance to live though.

Allison Krauss is on a whole other level beyond the musical form. Her singing is some of the best in any genre, an incredible singing voice that I absolutely love. Her fiddling and the rest of her top notch players in the band take it to another level, like the Beatles of bluegrass or something.

I have all her albums, she is a favorite of mine yet playing a musical format I'm not a fan of. And I'd say New Favorite is one of my favorites, the musicianship on that record is astounding. The Lucky One is from that CD originally.
