Album Review

In 1989, Keith Whitley, the bluegrass-influenced country star, died of alcohol poisoning at age 33. Citing him as an influence and an inspiration, Whitley's peers have banded together to pay him homage.

Beginning with Whitley's most well-known hit, "Don't Close Your Eyes," Alan Jackson sends this tribute album off with a bang, successfully adding his own sound to a song so closely identified with Whitley. On "Ten Feet Away," Diamond Rio's Marty Roe glides with the graceful notes of the sly chord changes. Alison Krauss is, as usual, extraordinary with her ethereal soprano--the ultimate bluegrass voice--on "When You Say Nothing At All."
