The long-time bassist for Lyle Lovett
and session player for others in prog-country and contemporary
Americana has crafted another fine solo effort. Imagine
a soundtrack to a rootsy, somewhat shadowy indie flick that
hovers between rural wandering and suburban quests for the
real, and you’d hire Krauss in an instant to give you
the score. He decks out his simple folkish melodies
with intricate guitar parts and keyboard textures that envelop
the multiple voices of Dean Parks’ session axe and
rock backbeats. Shawn Colvin’s girlish guest
vocals give an innocent, dreamy turn to the pscyhedelia of
Pink Floyd’s Shine on You Crazy
Diamond.
