Alison Krauss made me love Country Music
Posted: Mon Dec 10, 2007 11:37 pm
Personally, I used to tell people "I like all music except Country music", but that was before I heard Alison Krauss. On the other hand, she's generally classified as a "Bluegrass" singer, so I figure I might still be safe.
If hearing her sing doesn't melt your heart, then you are a cold, cold person.
A Hundred Miles or More, a recent compilation of mostly solo tracks. Includes her contributions to the Cold Mountain soundtrack, both of which are soul-destroyingly awesome.
Live with Union Station, a great overview/sampler.

I've written this assuming that everyone else here is not really a Country-music listener, but that's probably not true. If anyone can recommend some more good Bluegrass music, I'd love to hear it.
