just about the only "country" music i've ever liked...and i don't like it, i ADORE it. and it's technically bluegrass. i grew up listening to this....no words to describe the amazingness of the music, the musicians, and of course, allison!!!
OMG, if i didnt know any better, i would say it was someone else, but with the voice of Alison!! What a transformation from this to how she looks like now!
Ofcourse appereance is not important comparing to the music they make, but still.. Wow!!
my biggest inspiration and the reason I got into bluegrass when I was 4. My parents would always listen to Alison and this is a fun one to play and sing, and just a great tune in general.
@TheLisafar101 this is way before dan. only the banjo player and bass player survive to the current band. Gerry Douglas, the worlds greatest Dobro player and dan tyminski come when Allison is ready for them, which she wasn't at this point. I here it in her, but it isn't as fully developed and sophisticated as i becomes.
i love alison, have done since i was a young fella. i still listen to her regularly.. this is ultimately my all time favorite that bluegrass music is the best. the mandolin solo is fantastic. rock on alison i hope to see you in concert one day!
brings me back, i was 15 and drove my mum and dad mad singing this at the top of my lungs while i was doing my chores.... loved the album!! funny how old memories come back with a song!!
That is John Bowman. One of my favorite voices. He played with Alison Krauss for about a year than played with the Isaacs forever.. He's now playing with Adam Steffey in the new band , the boxcars!
Alison's voice was angelic then and has only gotten better. Also, Alison has a more beautiful face now then she did then. How? Did her bone structure soften up naturally? Is she better with make-up/hair/wardrobe? Weight loss? Plastic surgery?
Sorry, but she is nowhere NEAR as pretty now as she was then. Why? She was REAL, like the music she played. She was pure, untouched by human hands, left to bloom as God made her. Strange, not only did her music change, but so did her looks. She became commercial, so her looks had to follow suit.
She is still among my favorite, but I will take this Alison over any others after.
Dan Tyminski one of the Original Union Statilon Members and still is. Still plays with Alison Krause. He has a beard now and is extremely talented! Alison Krause and US are the VERY BEST!!!
i truly am a hillbilly from the mountains and this was all the music we listened to at friends houses they would be get togethers and us kids would chase lighting bugs and eat watermelon and dancing to the music being played on the porch
@waltzingduck My dad used to play her Now That I've Found You album all the time when I was about 4 or 5...I'll never forget hearing that beautiful voice on our old cd player reverberating around the living room
I could be wrong, but I recall an interview with John Bowman in which he had said he only left AKUS because of meeting his future wife Becky Isaacs and his desire to be with her. John would be an asset to any group though.

@DrCoots
While Dan Tyminski is an outstanding musician. he didn't join Union Station until 1994, when Tim Stafford left the band.
The original line-up on their first album "Two Highways" was:
Alison Krauss - fiddle, vocals
Jeff White - guitar, vocals
Mike Harman - banjo, vocals
John Pennell - bass
Jeff White went on to work with Vince Gill, and has a couple of outstanding solo albums. If you like Dan, you will probably like Jeff.

WOW! Thank you! I do enjoy AKUS a LOT as well as SOME of the Bluegrass and such out there.

Dan wasn't an original Union Station Member. He didn't come till 1994. John Bowman was there filling in before he came full time.

I don't think he ever was a member. I think he just filled in between the time Tim Stafford left to the time Dan Tyminski came in.
