as someone whose played music for 16 years and plays many genres and has heard many things, i can say that without a doubt, this is the most beautiful piece of music i’ve ever heard. i will never forget the time i first heard this song
it's a shame not more people have seen this video. the musicianship is extraordinary, the song is great, and then, there's Alison. what more could you want?
Tony Rice, Jerry Douglas, Sam Bush and Allison se escucha excelente, ojala pueda estar Bela Fleck y Mark Oconnor como en el festival 1988, un saludo desde El Salvador amigos
I think the reason is because Tony dubbed in a different break than what the camera actually showed. If you watch some of what the camera did grab then you can tell, hes not really playing what he laid down so. I think he went and redone the solo. Could be wrong but that is what I believe happened. Tony did struggle a lot in later years with his solos. Granted what he plays is absolute gold, but he may not have been happy with the original solo.
It definitely is, VERY well done.. and I'm glad Gordon Lightfoot is at least mentioned somewhere here, as it is his song after all. Is he even mentioned anywhere in the video?
@@esoxenvy3112 No he’s not mention. I’ve always loved this song. I first heard it on Tony Rice is 1988 album Native American. In fact and Tony’s 1986 album Me and My Guitar, five of the 12 songs recorded were written by Gordon Lightfoot. Such classic songs that lend themselves to a bluegrass interpretation. Speaking of Tony, it’s too bad when it came to his solo spot in this video the camera did not zoom in. His playing style is quite a thing to see up close.
I love this rendition AND YET the video carefully avoids any fret work by Tony Rice, implying that what we hear is not happening any this session. Just saying.
...once again, tone-deaf people in charge of camera work can't manage to capture Tony's solo.....when will we ever have people with EARS doing the video??
Allison, known for her vocal chops, was the Illinois State Fiddle Champion in 1983 at the age of 12! She is a flat out virtuoso who surrounds herself with such great musicians that she often defers to Tony or Jerry or whomever when it comes time for the solos. So, make the songs a little longer, but Alison needs to play more fiddle. So says me, and lots of others, I'll bet.
There is a spot reserved for Alison on heaven's choir...no doubt in my mind.
Brilliant musician that I had a chance in my life to listen and enjoyed God bless forever ❤❤❤

With all of the instruments playing. I can clearly hear Tony ringing through. I miss you, my old friend.
Tony Rice my guitar hero, and beautiful angelic Alison Krauss doing a Lightfoot song...RIP Tony..
Simply beautiful, lovely every second of that was beautiful what talent and what musicians fantastic
This touches my soul..
There is so much greatness exposed in this one video. It's breathtaking!!
Simply beautiful!!
Perfect performance by some of my most beloved musicians...thank you all
Sweet and bittersweet. But such a beautiful recording.
Beautiful RIP Tony
Tony's melodic playing is so advanced with all the rhythmic nuances. That is the sound and structure i strive to put into my bluegrass solos.
That was just beautiful, so moving! I would love to hear an entire album of Alison and Union Station performing Gordon Lightfoot’s songs!
Simply sublime. Exquisite vocal and supreme musicianship !
RIP Tony Rice
The mix on this recording is incredible.
Damn, pretty much perfect on by all accounts.
Love this Lightfoot song. I really love this version. You guys are great. Allisons voice is made for this song.
it's a shame not more people have seen this video. the musicianship is extraordinary, the song is great, and then, there's Alison. what more could you want?
Lightfoot back from the brink, Rice and Krauss. It couldn't get much better.
I have loved this song for decades, 1975. still a great song and they do it well.
Thank you Gordon for a great song. It was good on Tony's album and of course Gordon's and now Alison's.
this so gob smackingly beautiful....
Legend.
The best album that never was...
This is peak acoustic music
Tony Rice, Jerry Douglas, Sam Bush and Allison se escucha excelente, ojala pueda estar Bela Fleck y Mark Oconnor como en el festival 1988, un saludo desde El Salvador amigos
that’s awesome !!
That is beyond fabulous !
Perfect. Allison and the band sound angelic.
Beautiful and beautifully captured performance
Wow.
Stunning !

Magic....
Exquisite!!
Never get tired of this.
2 great musicians complementing each other with equally as talented players magnificent
There are more than 2 great musicians there.
WHEW ! Great to see a bunch of people doing what they love to do. Thank You for shareing with us.
Don’t think I’d ever seen this version before. Thank you so much for this! One of my favorite tunes Tony did.
Great version! Too bad the camera didn't catch a CU of Tony's solo...

Excellent video but I found myself yelling at the camera man during Tony's solo...
me too!
Looks like during that session they were just doing rhythm. They probably overdubbed that solo. I don't know why they didn't film it though....
Simply beautiful! ✨
Ah beautiful rendition of the great Gordon Lightfoot’s song.
It definitely is, VERY well done.. and I'm glad Gordon Lightfoot is at least mentioned somewhere here, as it is his song after all. Is he even mentioned anywhere in the video?

Probably an overdub is my guess
Blam it on the editing......
Tony had an aversion to seeing videos of his playing on youtube. He may have requested that his instrument not be filmed closely.
Why so few if any close ups on Tony’s picking and fretting?

What studio was this recorded in?
can someone identify the mics used here?
A Hundred Miles or More
what is this from? I'd love to see the whole thing if possible?
Alisson Krauss DVD: A hundred miles or more
What year was this, please? Thanks.
A Hundred Miles Or More: Live From the Tracking Room DVD was 2008
What video is this clip from?
It's called A Hundred Miles or More
Dolly Parton, Alison Krauss and Vince Gill. they all have something in common, their voices are all almost the same, high pitch
Shes a stellar indvidual. Miss Alison Maria Krauss. ♡ @jamesw.mooreOFFICIAL
A string band, and not a violin, cello or violin in sight. Wrote post before Allison's picked up the fiddle
The video miss on Tony's solo is just...criminally bad production. Wow.
Alison's vocal renditon was great .But Tony's solo had to be the Top Highlight !!
