I thought the movie looked pretty strange, but it's amazing the way so much good music turns out to have been on there.<br /><br />Bill, yeah, there's something about her. Thinking it over, I am coming to have a slight preference for the Hall arrangement, but that's because I like the richer harmony.Lydia McGrewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00423567323116960820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20704380.post-56729991410469696322011-04-29T20:35:48.630-04:002011-04-29T20:35:48.630-04:00Saw the Krause video.

It's included on a DVD entitled<i> Down From the Mountain</i>, which I bought a couple of years ago. (This is a film of a concert given in the Ryman Auditorium Nashville by the musicians of <i>O Brother, Where Art Thou.</i>) <br /><br />Alison Krause is one of my favourite singers; she has a lovely voice and her repertoire appeals to me strongly. <br /><br />Other songs on this DVD that I enjoyed immensely are, <i>I Am Weary (Let Me Rest)</i> and the traditional, <i>Will There Be Any Stars in My Crown</i> - both performed by the Cox Family. Suzanne Cox, the lead singer in this ensemble, also has a lovely voice and her family are wonderful musicians.<br /><br />I haven't seen the movie in which this music is the soundtrack.Alexnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20704380.post-60320805083590446872011-04-28T04:46:13.796-04:002011-04-28T04:46:13.796-04:00That Southern Gospel Yankee is really on top of th...That Southern Gospel Yankee is really on top of things.William Lusehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15928946919078483848noreply@blogger.com
