Alison Krauss & Union Station Live (2002) Review

Along with my father, we went to see Alison Krauss & Union Station perform live in El Paso, TX in early December of last year, and we were just blown away by the amazing talent of these musicians. Alison Krauss' voice sounded more beautiful and was more astonishing than any studio song I've ever heard recorded by her. Members of Union Station, Barry Bales, Jerry Douglas, Ron Block, and Dan Tyminski blew up away with their instrument playing. It's hard to believe that both my first concert, and pretty much my Dad's first concert, would pretty much turn out to be overall perfect. Alison Krauss sang beautifully and Union Station performed exceptionally.
When I was thinking of a gift to buy my father for Christmas, I remembered how much he was blown away by the concert. So, I ordered the DVD version of their live concert from April 29 and 30, 2002 at The Louisville Palace in Louisville, KY. My father was so happy when he got the DVD, and he loved watching all of the artists performs. He said it was haunting to see them on screen, considering we had just seen them in concert, and he said it was just like being there all over again -- hearing them live, being blown away by their amazing talents.
Alison Krauss & Union Station have to be some of the best artists to have come along ever since music was first being recorded. They're talents are breath-taking and you won't have a single flaw to point out about them.
I think the more special 'treats' on this 2 DVD set are the intense, instrument-only performances "Choctaw Hayride" and "Cluck Old Hen". It's amazing watching how fast and accurate these musicians play their instruments. Not only does Alison Krauss sing, but she also plays the fiddle. If Alison Krauss & Union Station ever stop if your town for a concert, here's some smart advice. GO SEE THEM. You'll get a whole lot more than your money's worth.
The special features of this DVD aren't bad at all. The first disc of this 2 DVD set is of the concert, and the second is of the special features. The second disc contains a tribute to Peador O'Donnell (someone who worked closely with the group), a haunting music video for "New Favorite" from the album NEW FAVORITE, and other features including biographies of/interviews with Alison Krauss, Union Station, and drummer Larry Atamanuik.
The Alison Krauss & Union Station LIVE 2-disc CD set will make a great gift for anyone who loves pure, quality music.

Raven has a vision of the Chill Grill going out of business. So she has to lower herself (literally). She has to go out with Stanley so he wouldn't play at the Hill Grill (How original!).

This is pretty cool. It shows how they did Raven playing 4 different characters and how they did the masks. How they did the statue in art Breakers. B Video Commentary with Raven This basically shows what she has to do for the episodes and I think she works really hard. It's not a boring commentary. It's really interesting.

Join Raven on more hilarious adventures of psychic proportions as she covers up and laughs it up in a variety of disguises, impersonations, and way cool fun. Raven plasters herself in clay and feathers to play "statue" when she accidentally breaks the statue that Chelsea made of her for an art contest. Then Raven turns a family feud into family fun when she pays a visit to her country cousins. Look out for Raven as she plays the characters Auntie Faye, Delroy, and Baby G. And, in a never-before-seen episode, Raven cooks up a scheme to serve up some hot tunes at the Chill Grill when she has a vision that it’s going out of business.
