The Amazon review starts " For gods sake buy this..."They were right.The history of Shelby Lynnes little sister who also adds her voice on three tracks is sadly interesting.This was one of my only success sacd wise in the Nashville area visit and it took two plays before I was hooked.
The startling thing seemed how similair her voice and Cher sound on a number of tracks.I admit to liking Live music or performances rather than sit at home nit picking about this and that..I started listening to live music long before I became obsessed with super hifi.....All tracks are excellent or above though some standout. Bring me all your lovin .A soft place to Fall and Alahbama song stick out.Im not overstruck on Lonesome Bobs contribution on one track as he sings so flat it was a suprise she stayed in key...The cd version also comes with a dvd video and extra track Cold cold earth also a belter not on the CD .this DVD seems to be 48hz /20- Sonics wise its 4.5 stars from a biased "I want more Moorer and C&W items on sacd."Performance would have been a good alternative title...

Awesome!

Though not a huge country fan the entire CD is just plain Awesome. Allison's voice is incredible, the steel guitar is crisp and clean and the drums...well...they sound like drums. Add all of that to the exceptional sound quality with the live performance and special guests (Shelby Lynne, Lonesome Bob, Kid Rockand R.S.Field on the guitar) and you end up making an Epic recording. I love this SACD and I would highly recommend it to anyone that loves Great music!

When I saw this on Amazon for 14.99, I said ,gotta have it, I reviewed it for Countrystarsonline when it came out. Originally it was a CD and a DVD of the Concert, Wish they had kept the DVD concert video as part of the package ,but I will take the music anyday. I love both sisters Allison Moorer and Shelby Lynne. This hybrid SACD really lets it shine, btw, love the super jewel cases that SACDs come in. She starts out with some older stuff like Alabama song and Soft Place to Fall. This is one of the smoothest SACDs that I have heard, and it is showing what a powerful machine my little Oppodigital D980 is turning out to be, mostly used for music. My 10 year old Sony CD player is just sitting, For some reason ,it still makes better cassette tapes than the Oppodigital.
The instruments sound great on the disc from, a straight acoustic song like "letting go" to a Rocker like "Send Down an Angel". This disc is recorded in a small club in Nashville , 12th and Porter, Sometimes I feel like that I am sitting right in the crowd!!!!
This must have been an extremely short run, only a few left @ Amazon. And another bit, it is always a treat to see Allison and big sis Shelby singing together. Shelby raised Allison after parents died a tragic death.
