The CD is by bass player Victor Krauss and it's called "Far From Enough". Lots of great pickin by Jerry Douglas (on dobro, lap steel & Weissenborn) and guitarist Bill Frisell in a spacey improvisational context. Very cool!

| Thanks for the recommendation. I'm glad to see Victor out there with his own cd. These three collaborated on a couple of Bill Frissell's cd's--"Nashville" and "Good Dog, Happy Man." Victor's sister is Allison Kraus |

| Viktor's sister Alison is on the CD doing the Robert Plant tune Big Log, from his solo record, Principle of Moments, which is a pretty neat tune I had completely forgotten about. I'm glad they revived it, and it is a nice version. |

Victor played on "Good Dog, Happy Man", but the steel work is by Greg Leisz, not Jerry Douglas. I don't have "Nashville". Good album?

The Viktor Krauss CD is in pretty heavy rotation on my stereo these days. Great stuff. I must have a hundred CDs with Jerry Douglas on them and I`d put his perfomance on Nashville in the top ten. An engineer once asked me to recomend an album to hear how a Dobro should sound so he could get an idea how to E.Q. some tracks I`d done for him. Nashville was the album I told him to get. I should warn you that it does have BANJO on 2 or 3 tracks,however.

"Nashville" is one of my favorite albums. And yes, that's definitely how a dobro should sound.
I don't like every track on it, but the three quarters of it that I do like is just beautiful. Worth it for the first track alone.

P.S. And it's better than "Good Dog, Happy Man," in my opinion.[This message was edited by Travis Bernhardt on 10 April 2004 at 02:07 PM.] |
