Customer Rating:
Summary: Brilliant
Comment: The title of this review is an understatement. I can appreciate Jerry Douglas more with his own work than I can when he performs with Alison Krause, and I am enamored with the latter. Words aren't sufficient to describe how Mr. Douglas moves me, and this latest work transcends all my expectations from his musicianship.

Summary: World's greatest Dobro
Comment: While Alison Krause is exploring other music direction her fellow Union Station members are out working. A great solid set from one of the greatest dobro players. Except for two songs this is instrumental so if you like those songs with a great dobro presence this is it. A great backing band to help make this a wonderful set. If you are a Jerry Douglas fan make sure that this one is in your collection!
