Album Reviews
From Amazon.com

Grossly exagerated bass makes this unlistenable

 Album Rating: (2 of 5 stars)

Review Comments: I really like Alison Krauss and looked forward to listening to this album. The bass is so artificially and unnaturally boosted (or given way too much prominence in the mix) that all the booming and thumping sucks all the enjoyment out of almost every song. It may be good if you listen to it on a laptop computer with the tinny built in speakers, but not on any decent sound system or pair of headphones. What were they thinking? Not recommended.

Raisin Sand by Plant and Krause - save your money

 Album Rating: (1 of 5 stars)

Review Comments: First off I am a fan of Robert Plant and Alison Krause.

After reading some of the reviews on this album, I was excited to order it.

when I received the CD, took it to my truck and took a drive.

Jeez, this is the most melancholy and dark collection of songs I have ever encountered.

The bass beat and drums sound like a big screen movie dirge for a funeral scene out of Star Wars.

This CD starts off bad and goes to worse. Only a couple cuts towards the end liven up the beat just slightly.

These two artists can do a lot better.

Save your money. I listened one time came home and tossed this CD into the trash. Heck, I would not even give it away.

Great stuff

 Album Rating: (5 of 5 stars)

Review Comments: Great vibe/ background music.
Allison Krause's voice is beautiful.
Robert Plant is nice and mello.

Raising Sand

 Album Rating: (5 of 5 stars)

Review Comments: Perfect harmony and balance! The kind of mellow music I can relax to and enjoy every word or fall asleep to and count on having pleasant dreams.

1 Million Stars!!!

 Album Rating: (5 of 5 stars)

Review Comments: The CD came to me in perfect condition, as advertised. The CD itself is AMAZING. I've been playing it on repeat since I purchased it. I highly recommend that you buy a copy for not only yourself, but for everyone that you care about as well.
