They were a great band before they added Jerry Douglas. Now they're just plain 'mazin'. {#Cowboy}

I was worried this would be an exercise in maddening, plodding frustration like "Choctaw Bingo". I am SO glad to be wrong this time.

Not understanding the inferred connection between mental inability and this virtuoso performance by a woman blessed by the triple threat of instrumental perfection, angelic vocal chords and impressive management experience from an extremely young age. Is this something akin to an editorial cartoon from two centuries ago typifying people as having simian traits due solely to skin tone?

Funny how so many RP listeners (not necessarily Kdubba) defend any imagined slight and fawn over "world music" as being extremely important culturally (as it is), and then think of the inventive, tough, sustaining and close-to-nature culture of rural America as somehow unworthy and ignorant.

Sorry Kdubba - you probably only meant to be funny. As a proud and respectful product of rural culture, the duplicity that rears its head all too often on RP is an injustice hot button for me.

So endeth the sermon

Curious, the opening section of this song (with the chordal progressions and particularly the opening guitar melody) REALLY reminded me of a Mark Knopfler song which has also received lot of play on RP recently. Wonder if Knopfler was listening to this album before he composed his song?... ;)

(not complaining, I like both songs)

What he said. I think Ms. Krauss was playing the Opry at age twelve or something. She's got fiddle chops to burn.

The opening songs on disc 2, A Tribute to Peador O'Donnell/Monkey Let the Hogs Out followed by The Boy Who Wouldn't Hoe Corn, are just incredible.  That combo deserves to be on the playlist.  My volume goes to 11 for those, no matter where I am.

Jerry Douglas rips this up in the live version, hard to believe a human can move that fast.

Alison Krauss did some music on her own and I know I heard her say that she does not like the attention she got as a solo ist.  I think that she fits really well with Union Station, they make amazing music!  I hope they never stop!

Yes both Alison Krauss and Union Station are national treasures. As a Canadian I envy America for having these artists as part of it's cultural mosaic!

9.  The live version gets a 10, because there's no chance they overdubbed it.  What an outstanding group of musicians.  Each member deserves a solo career of his/her own.

I got to know Alison and the band through R.P.,tonight I was in another room(decorating )When I heard Jerry Douglas's guitar.I had to come through and check,and sure enough it was him.Instantly recognisable tone.Now with electric players....Clapton,Kossof,Hendrix Knopfler et all fair enough,but Douglas plays an ACOUSTIC instrument.That guy has magic in his fingers.

I love to hear Alison's fiddle. Her voice is so lovely, her fiddle playing doesn't get the attention it deserves. I think it has something of her singing voice in it.
