Love that!
 
On a completely different bent, and yes, it's a bit bent, there's this slowed down masterpiece:

Very interesting . I have heard that Dolly Parton was one of Jerry Garcia's favorite vocalists phrasing wise .

For bluegrass music fans here at the Alembic Club,  if you'll permit me a shameless plug... one of my good friends and former band-mates is (one of) the owners/partners at  http://bluegrasstoday.com/
 
He's grown that thing from the ground up... it's absolutely *the* clearing house for everything that's anything to do with that particular genre' of music, and often those peripheral to it.  
 
Most of you guys and girls know, bluegrass and rock, particularly the music that emerged from the folk boom, and that of bluegrass' 2nd generation of players, are inextricably related, having met up while travelling the same pathways in the late 1960's.

I really like this !  
I think Anna , who is sings the lead and is playing the Hurdy-Gurdy is Really awesome . This is all in Swiss -German . A dialect of the Germanic languages . it is quite special in its own right . I understand and speak various German dialects.

Wolf, I really like that version of The Call of the Mountains, in found it interesting how the fiddle player holds the bow away from the frog.
 
Here's one with a bluegrass theme.
 
From Merlefest; Nickel Creek, The Lighthouse's Tale.
 
I don't consider myself much of a romantic, but the story that this lighthouse speaks of gets to me every time.

Austin City Limits from 2-25-13 (Esperanza Spalding) and 2-2-14 (1st half Sara Jarosz, 2nd half The Milkcarton Kids).  In a desolate soundscape of Justin Gaga Swift drival and thumpity-thimp clamor, they give me hope!

Thanks Dave, that's good stuff there... hard to go wrong between those two gals. Love(d) Crooked Still in the heyday, Aoife was a perfect fit. And Sara, we'll there's all kinda' Songs Up In Her Head. =)
 
For this Easter Sunday, I've been listening to (and playing along with) Alison Krauss & The Cox Family's I Know Who Holds Tomorrow. Alison's brother Viktor really shines on bass for several cuts. By contrast, Union Station bassist Barry Bales is a master of leaving the perfect amount of space between on the slower tempo numbers. Absolute monster players, both.
