Bluegrass was created on the influences of old-timey music, which itself is rooted in the ancient musical traditions of the British Isles. Therefore, this album isn't simply a loving look at the music of Alison Krauss; it is a history lesson of popular music in America. Fiddle, banjo, and pennywhistle create an authentic atmosphere of yesteryear when folk songs were cheerfully passed between musicians. This album is packed with lively interpretations of Alison's best-loved songs.
