A Hundred Miles or More: A Collection

The duet with James Taylor, How's the World Treating You, is the most beautiful song I've ever heard. I love this album!

This record is a great set of songs sung beautifully by the wonderful singer Alison Krauss. I discovered Alison Krauss when I bought last year's release "Raising Sand", the album of duets with Led Zeppelin's lead singer Robert Plant. The purity and tone of Alison's voice on that record made me curious to hear her other work and this is a great example. She plays a mean fiddle too! I actually prefer this record to Raising Sand. Sorry Robert! There are some fine songs and a couple of old standards, and even a duet with James Taylor. The musicianship on this record is exemplary also. Terrific.

Another great album from Alison Krauss. What a pure angelic voice. Great songs and great vocals. If you are a Alison fan like me, you have to have this one in your collection.

This isn't for your upbeat, dancing mood; but it is beautiful and satisfying in its own right. Listen to it a few times before making a judgment. I love Alison's pure voice and the simple, heartfelt songs she chooses. The only song that I don't care for is the "Sawing on the Strings", as it doesn't fit the rest of the mood of this more melancholy, yet lovely collection.

I do enjoy this CD. However a couple songs I just don't understand. There is 3 songs that is to sad to listen too. Alison Krauss is still the most talented female singer I know of. Pure talent. So the songs are alittle over my head but I'll still listen to it.
