Raising Sand

The cd was almost as wonderful as the concert. Alison's voice continues to amaze me.

A Strange Pairing

I've been a fan of both Robert and Alison for too many years to mention; however, I would never have come up with this pairing. Admittedly, I was a bit of a skeptic when I saw the release of the album. When I first heard "Gone, Gone, Gone", I thought: Okay, this is not bad. Then I heard "Please Read The Letter". I was sold . . . hook, line and sinker.

I would place this album easily in my top twenty fave albums of all time, and that is saying something.

The music is evocative and bluesy and it just makes you . . . feel.

I could not recommend it more, if you are a music lover of any type, this is a must have for your collection. A wholly remarkable album which will linger in your ears and mind long after the last note plays.

Intriguing and Refreshing!

I am a huge fan of Led Zeppelin, so I bought this album right away. Robert Plant sounds a lot different, of course, since this is a country album. However, not different in a bad way. He has a versatile style. Alison Krauss has a beautiful voice, and they are very harmonious. My faves on this album are "Rich Woman", "gone, gone, gone", and "Fortune Teller."

Raising Sand

Great CD ! Especially "Killing the Blues"(from the JC Penney commercial)
My favorite however was "Your Long Journey" Can't get that tune out of my head.
