I'm listening to this album right now and I really can't believe that I've never noticed this album is probably one of my top 5 best recordings. It's incredibly dynamic and suits my Grados very well. It's definately not harsh, but I would say it's pleasantly bright. Both Sarah and Chris' voices are very very forward and lifelike, which is something I find lacking from a lot of other bluegrass albums, with the exception of Alison Krauss' latest albums (she produced this album as well). Anyhow, I'm sure a lot of you have stuff you like the sound of better, but if you have this album put it on and listen for quality. It's stunning.
Top 5 Recordings I Own:
1. Nickel Creek - 'This Side'
2. Alison Krauss - 'Forget About It', 'Lonely Runs Both Ways', and 'AK&US Live'
3. Erik Clapton - 'Unplugged'
4. Bela Fleck - 'Tales From The Acoustic Planet v.II The Bluegrass Sessions' and 'Perpetual Motion'
5. New Grass Revial - 'Best of New Grass Revival' (I know it's a best of, but really it's just a combination of the best songs from their last two albums).
