Album Description

"Windy City" is the fifth solo studio album by bluegrass-country artist Alison Krauss.

The deluxe edition adds four live versions of tracks.
User Album Review
Reviewed by Robert Ham for consequenceofsound
Any fears about Krauss aiming for arena-sized sales numbers are quickly wiped away upon the first spin through Windy City. The most well-known song on this album is “Gentle on My Mind”, the easy-listening staple that Glen Campbell took to the Billboard Top 40 in 1968. Beyond that, this is a record of Krauss’ personal favorites and deep cuts that molded her sensibility as a performer and songwriter, all recorded with a traditionalist’s bent under the guidance of Grammy-winning producer Buddy Cannon. In that sense, the songs that Krauss chose for Windy City look back to country’s sorrowful, heartbroken roots. There are no happy relationships or sexy good times to be found.
Krauss is well-known enough that this album is guaranteed to sell well and likely net her an armful of awards by this time next year. If she’s playing it a little safe, it might be out of some fear of alienating the fan base she has cultivated since the mid-‘80s. She’s not pushing the envelope so much as crinkling it a little bit, so she can curl up comfortably inside.
