The first thing you'll notice when you play the performance DVD is the incredible picture and sound quality. Filmed in High Definition with True Dolby Digital 5.1 surround sound, AKUS LIVE spared no expense to bring you the truest presentation possible of this immensely talented group of Bluegrass all-stars. To further add to the experience, the concert is presented in widescreen format allowing all of Union Station to be visible when these famous pickers really get going.
AKUS Live is truly a classic collection of some of the greatest Bluegrass music ever recorded. From Allison Krauss favorites such as "Let Me Touch You For Awhile" and "Ghost In This House," to the easily recognizable hit theme from O Brother Where Art Thou?, "I am a Man Of Constant Sorrow" (Featuring the real voice of the Soggy Bottom Boys Dan Tyminski) all performed live from the Louisville Palace in Louisville, KY. LIVE also features Kraus's timeless tribute to Keith Whitley, her version of "When You Say Nothing At All."
Throughout the show, Allison and Union Station interact well with the audience, talking about the music and sharing personal stories and jokes and the visually stunning Louisville Palace provides a perfect backdrop to this intimate performance.
If LIVE was just a concert performance it would be one of the best ever, but Allison Krauss and Union Station give you so much more with a special second DVD featuring interviews with the band, behind the scenes footage, a discography, the New Favorite music video and much more. All in all, LIVE is a wonderful gift to fans of Bluegrass, providing the viewer with great music and an intimate look at the talented musicians that make the music. I highly recommend it.
