I was just listening to "In My Hands" by wonderful fiddler Natalie MacMaster. Mostly instrumentals, everything from traditional Irish jigs to funky fusion. One song, "Get Me Through December" features Alison Krauss. Beautiful song, one of my favorite AK vocals.
"Paper Airplane"
Dear Alison,
I love you. Your body of work is what dreams are made of. I'm sorry to say that, while mere mortals, such as I, could ever dream of being able to obtain your level of perfection, I am feeling that PA is not up to your previous standards. While everyone's performance is excellent, the (magic) that we have come to expect, isn't there the way it was previously. The sonics, while they are very good, aren't up to the standards set by all of your previous works. Forgive me, I'm still a huge fan. My best.....
