Location: Blue Ridge Mountains | I am a big Allison Krauss fan, and the album "100 Miles or More" that "Wiskey Lullabye" is on, for the most part is a tremendous album. But I really never liked this song from the first time I heard it...( I did listen to the Jon Randall's version: a bit better, but the whole premise of the song sucks! ( :eek: ) well it just does...
But the one on the album that will make you look for a high bridge is "Jacob's Dream" a mornful, ultra depressing song about two lost children who died in the cold when no one could find them...You won't need the "Bottle" after this one...
That said, "Lay Down Beside Me" the new duet w/John Waite is fantastic; definatly the best on the CD...And the lap steel work by Jerry Douglas is so great...what tone... |

The -only- version of that song that I find tolerable is Melonie Cannon's, and I liked hers enough to learn the song. There is an on-line clip available at
Melonie Cannon Whisky Lullaby clip
The lyrics and story of that song are a bit different than most, but that's okay by me. ;)

I agree that the rest of that CD is good. I like some of her others better, actually, and Jacob's Dream is just about too depressing to listen to... ;) |

Location: Latitude 39.56819, Longitude -105.080066 | One of the local (and better) radio stations has been featuring the Krause/Plant album this week and playing all the songs (and giving away copies of the CD).
While I have not heard them all (6-7 tunes) I have liked "most" of them. I felt the others missed by a mile (but then most CD's are like that these days).
Interesting team up and not all that bad.
Of what I have heard, I would rate it a 7.5 - 8.5 |
