Weekly Review:
“Yes, this album came out 10 years ago (GASP)…yes, it won 5 Grammy Awards & much deserved critical acclaim…and yes, it’s damn good!
I remember getting the CD after all the rave reviews and talk, being curious about the strange combination of the “Lion of Rock” & Folk music’s “Queen of Bluegrass”. Just seemed bizarre, but they say “opposites attract”, and these opposites found a common bond in the songs chosen by producer T-Bone Burnett that comprise “Raising Sand”.
And let’s talk about the CD a second . . . it sounds awful. Not sure who mastered it, but there are “digital distortions” that made it just unbearable to appreciate the beauty within.
The vinyl release? One word . . . sublime! Whatever they did for the vinyl release got rid of the annoyance. Put on a pair of headphones and get lost in their voices. It truly is a sublime experience. The gentle approach by Alison on “Through The Morning, Through The Night” is an aural treat. Robert’s playful attack on “Gone, Gone, Gone” is a fun listen. The way these two voices harmonize is both evocative and beautiful. A simplistic yet mesmerizing album that is also mirrored in the artwork…two shades of grey that capture the beauty of two distinct voices.
And let’s not dismiss the musicians that play the music. They provide an amazing foundation that doesn’t erode from track to track.
It would have been criminal to cram all this music on one vinyl disc. Rounder Records did the right thing releasing it on two 180g platters.
I’ll never listen to the CD again :)”
