Description

'Essential Alison Krauss' is a wonderful collection that was chosen by Alison to reflect the very best of her career to date. It is an inspired selection of songs which displays her development as a vocalist, fiddle player and producer; from her early signing to Rounder Records at 14 years old, up to the present day.

The tracks are drawn from her extensive back catalogue, truly representing Alison's commitment to Bluegrass and American traditional music styles, combined with her unique ability to contemporise the sound and take it to a very wide mainstream audience. It was all of these factors which drew Robert Plant into collaborating with Alison and the massive worldwide success of 'Raising Sand'.

There is no other star quite like Alison Krauss in terms of purity, artistic integrity and star quality, combined with huge unsung commercial success. The popularity of the 'Oh, Brother Where Art Thou' soundtrack similarly did much to take Alison's voice into millions of homes around the world. More and more fans are discovering how timeless Alison's music is and her tracks from 1995 remain as relevant today.
