The Best Kept Secret
: :As further proof that the virtuosity of Jerry Douglas knows no categorical bounds, the biggest surprise on his predominantly instrumental The Best Kept Secret is a revival of the disco-era smash 'Back in Love Again,' with Alison Krauss supplying as much vocal funk as she can muster. The undisputed master of the shimmering Dobro (and a featured member of Krauss's band Union Station), Douglas also applies his artistry to the jazzy atmospherics of Weather Report's 'A Remark You Made,' pays homage to Celtic fiddler Aly Bain on the reflective 'Sir Aly B,' trades ...

Lookout for Hope
: :Jerry Douglas, who's most often heard adding lustrous Dobro lines to Alison Krauss's Union Station and umpteen country and pop records, uses his periodic solo albums to stretch the stylistic boundaries of steel strings and a slide bar. Lookout for Hope begins on a sweetly familiar note with a multitracked Dobro arrangement of Duane Allman's ever-popular 'Little Martha,' then ventures toward bluegrass, bebop, and points between and beyond. On many tracks, drums and even a dash of saxophone enhance the core acoustic string sounds, and low-key vocal cameos from Maura O'Connell ('Footsteps Fall') ...

Bourbon & Rosewater
: :The North Indian Bhatt stretches in a different direction for this collaboration with country/bluegrass dobro virtuoso Douglas and bassist Meyer, Douglas's frequent partner in Nashville. Both the dobro and the upright bass employ sliding tones, of course, and are quite compatible with Bhatt's mohan vina. All but one of the eight tunes on this all-instrumental album were written by one or more of the three musicians, and they come up with lovely, shimmering, legato lines. Instead of the earthy qualities elicited by Mahal's blues, Douglas and Meyer bring out the yearning and melodic ...

Everything Is Gonna Work out Fine
: :By age 26, Jerry Douglas had already completed stints with the Country Gentlemen, J.D. Crowe & New South, and Boone Creek in addition to his two solo records for Rounder. These first two solo records-- 1979's Fluxology and 1982's Fluxedo--are combined for this stunning reissue. On the Fluxology cuts, Douglas and familiar pals (Skaggs, Rice, Phillips, et al) roar through rags and breakdowns at furious paces, save for two Douglas originals--the bouncy little jazz gem 'C-Biscuit' and the delicate 'Blues for Vickie.' Fluxedo displays a change in direction as Douglas takes a more ...
