Been digging the JT videos!
 
Here's James Taylor with Alison Krauss, on an old Louvin Bros. tune I like... this one always seems to come back to me around the holidays every year.  
 

 
Alison Krauss and Union Station on ACL a few years ago, doing maybe my favorite Sidney Cox tune ever - Broadway. I love the first line of the second verse - so the curtains are down, for the moment I was someone... Dang, that's hard.

It is bass heaven!

The Dragons are at work !

I'm with you on this one, Wolf, this era was bursting with energy!

Rob ,  Yes the 1971 Phil was indeed magic . I think he may be playing that Alembic modified Gibson EBO with the Guild/Hagstrom Bi-Sonic pickups with the Darlington Pair mods as well . Raw high gain on fire !  so to speak .

Been jamming to this all morning Wolf - That's a great cut on that one. I would very much like to hear an Easy Wind take on it.  
 
Funny (related) story... one of the bands I often get called to sub with are huge Dead fans, albeit 3rd generation ones. (20-somethings) So we're playing a brewery gig the other night, and one of them finally notices my bass is an Alembic. Dude - that's what Phil plays...!!! Well no, not *exactly* I say, his has Series II electronics... I should have just enjoyed the instant cred, however undeserved. =)
 
I'm in the midst of two weeks of Christmas concerts, and thirsty for anything that isn't holiday related when off-duty, so here's my listening thread entry for today:
 

 
It's amazing how Alison can break your heart with two verses and a chorus. You hardly even feel the knife with all the passing chords.

Gregory I love the Evermore - Alison Krauss ! Nice !

2nd set, Paris, 5-4-72.
EVen with a gawd-awful dirge version of Merle's Sing Me Back Home, it just applies boot to buttocks in a major fashion; Good Lovin' & Dark Star for the ages!
