This is Alison Krauss's brother. I didn't listen to the CD very much.

Why grouse about Krauss?

(5 out of 5 stars)

"What we've got here is more glorious Heartland Jazz, right up there with the finest of Bill Frisell and Joel Harrison's spectacular Free Country.Flawless interaction between dobro vet Jerry and Bill Frisell plying his usual trade of wacky and whacked-out acoustic and electric guitars. Sister Alison contributing mysterioso ambient vocals. That dusty, hardbitten South/Southwest sensibility. What more do you want?If you're looking for pyrotechnics, this ain't the place. If you're after a mellow, bloozy, slightly off-kilter Midwest/Southern/Western vibe, this is your disc. Sorta like Ry Cooder's Mambo Sinuendo translated to the American Heartland.Dig it."
Liked it a lot. Frisell & Douglas play great together.

"This is another fine session involving guitarist Bill Frisell. He and Krauss made great music on the "Gone Just Like a Train" album, and this is something like a cross between that and "Nashville." The difference is that Krauss' compositions have a little more rigid form, and there are more up-tempo pieces. Those who look for the more esoteric material might come away disappointed. As expected, the interplay between Frisell and Jerry Douglas' dobro is exquisite; it echoes Frisell's great work with lap steel player Greg Leisz. Krauss plays very well throughout. I like that his writing fits somewhere in between jazz, instrumental rock, and bluegrass. Sister Allison Krauss adds fine vocals and some viola. As mentioned earlier, their cover of Robert Plant's "Big Log" is wonderful."
