 Rating: - Does anyone else have a voice this heavenly and skin so pure??When Alison Krauss first joined with Union Station (Ron Block, Dan Tyminski, Barry Bales and the always spectacular Jerry Douglas) she was playing fiddle on nearly all the numbers. Then she had her crossover hit "Baby, Now That I Found You" and the fiddle took a back seat.

What talent surrounds!!!this woman's voice is the manifestation of bliss in sonic form...and it is so stunning to see and hear the effortlessness with which she sings...i don't know bluegrass history and legendary players as well as i might, but i am led to believe that sam bush and tony rice are masters...and they certainly prove it here...this sound is remarkable, i was skeptical because i rarely buy dvds that do not have surround sound, but i took a chance with this and was pleased...although it is not especially long, the ...

Rating: - Brad Paisley Said It AllThis is really not an AKUS project, but the band is a big part of it. The other musicians are unbelievable and you can just see the joy in their faces as they play with each other. But Brad Paisley said it all when he something to the effect that when he gets to Heaven and if the Angels don't sing like Alison Krauss he wants to come back. Alison Krauss is just a treasure and this DVD shows exactly why. Her song selection consists of many that are both sad, but in a way uplifting. Her duets are just perfect ...
