Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
Country music reclaimed its traditional soul with the chart-topping triumph of the O Brother, Where Art Thou? soundtrack. Down From The Mountain, the concert sequel, recorded (and filmed) at Nashville's venerable Ryman Auditorium, reunites Emmylou Harris, Gillian Welch, Alison Krauss and Union Station and other O Brother standouts. With little duplication, the selection extends the film's revival of acoustic spirituals and Appalachian balladry, though the performances and pacing of the concert aren't quite as consistently compelling as the studio soundtrack. Among the highlights is a pair of originals by Welch and David Rawlings, the bluesy "Dear Someone" and the Everlyesque "I Want to Sing That Rock and Roll". Where O Brother interspersed archival recordings among the contemporary artistry, the concert finds Nashville gospel's Fairfield Four harmonising on the chain-gang chant of "Po' Lazarus", while the late John Hartford (in one of his final performances) renews the deadpan whimsy of "Big Rock Candy Mountain". --Don McLeese

5.0 out of 5 stars This one is for fans of five string banjos!, 4 Aug 2001
By A Customer
I found the rythm and sound of banjos on this disc to be irrestible. If you can keep still while listening to it you must be made of stone!

1.0 out of 5 stars not so original, 23 Dec 2003
By A Customer
I am sorry to say that I was extremely disapointed by this concert.
If you have no idea what bluegrass is about, do NOT take this as an ambassador for the many great artists out there. But saying this I also must praise Alison Krauss & Union St. for they're "blue and lonesome" which sends childs down your back. Very beautiful.

1.0 out of 5 stars Live album, 17 Jun 2003
By J. A. Evans "Snaede" (Uk) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Live album by some of the artists from "O Brother where art thou." Little disappointed that some of the songs are in fact indentical to the original film album (which is great) but generally a good live addition to your "Blue Grass" collection
