Surprising Result November 25, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Others have given plenty detail describing the album itself, how the pairing of these two artists works and assessments on the songs themselves so I won't go into length on those. What I will say is that as a hardcore rocker dating back to my concert days in the 70's, I didn't have the highest of expectations for this album. But, being open minded and having great respect for Robert Plant, I thought I'd give this one a listen. Boy was I pleasantly surprised by their end result. Although my wife isn't as open minded as I am and doesn't really care for this type of music, I can say the opposite is true of me in that I have listened to this over and over. I loathe country music but this isn't really country. I love rock music and lean more toward Alice in Chains, when I'm in the mood for something a little different but yet still totally enjoyable, this one fits the bill. It may not be for everyone or even for you, but maybe you'd be surprised like I was and actually fall in love this this album.

raising sand November 23, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I love the sound of Alison's voice where ever she may be but I did not connect with any of the songs. Their blend was fine in the duets. I was not longing for a bluegrass CD as I am not a fan but this just missed the mark for me.
Raising Sand is a Great album November 18, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Seemed like an unlikely pairing when I first heard about this CD, but I like Alison Krause so I gave it a chance. Nice album that improves with repeated listening. Better to mix it with other music though because the chord structure is a little heavy if you just play the CD straight. Alison K's voice is unreal. With that high range, reminds me of a young Baez. Sister Rosetta, Trampled Rose, Gone Gone Gone, and others are really good music. Check it out.
I am doing this review because I love this!!!!!! November 17, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is one of my favorite CDs. Each song brings up a different emotion. Everyone I have played it for loves it. I play it over and over and enjoy it more each time.
