Product Description
From Amazon.com
The Cox Family includes daddy Willard, son Sidney and three daughters, Suzanne, Evelyn, and Lynn. All five are solid lead and harmony vocalists, but Suzanne and Evelyn are special singers with the same kind of effortlessly graceful sopranos as Krauss. Between them, Krauss, Suzanne and Evelyn take nine of the dozen lead vocals and with the backing of the Cox Family voices and Krauss' regular musicians, the results are enchantingly lovely. Krauss has picked the hymns from a wide variety of sources--Paul Simon, Loretta Lynn, Thomas Dorsey and Dottie Rambo--but they are united by her tastefully understated acoustic arrangements. Nothing quite captures the mix of hopes and fears that make up gospel music like the duet between Krauss and Evelyn on Lynn's "Everybody Wants to Go to Heaven (But Nobody Wants To Die)." --Geoffrey Himes

2.0 out of 5 stars
great voices, shallow arrangements,
By Susan K. Noel "paper moon" (Gold Hill, Colorado, US) - See all my reviews
This review is from: I Know Who Holds Tomorrow (Audio CD)
Well, I love Alison Kraus, and the Cox Family, but I'm very dissappointed in this CD. In my opinion the arrangements (sorry Alison) are vapid, and keep the great vocals from ever reaching beyond light entertainment. Basically, even on the ballads, the parameters are set to "light" rather than "deep and soulful." Perhaps I just go in for a more pure and traditional sound. The title track is lovely, and Suzanne Cox is a fabulous singer, but even here the arrangement holds back on power and depth. The cut "In the Palm of Your Hand" is beautiful, but it sounds like something off an Alision Kraus album -- no problem with that, but I sure would like to hear the Cox Family in a less controlled setting.

Gospel Bluegrass gets the Alison Krauss treatment,
By Mark J. Fowler "Let's Play Two!" (Jacksonville, Florida) - See all my reviews
This review is from: I Know Who Holds Tomorrow (Audio CD)
Alison Krauss discovered the talented Cox Family before most of the rest of the world, and she immediately knew what the rest of us were to find out: that they're a talented bunch of musicians.On "I Know Who Holds Tomorrow" Alison and Union Station join the Cox Family for a disc of polished but soulful country/bluegrass gospel music. Alison trades lead vocal duties with the Cox ladies, Suzanne and Evelyn, and Dad Willard and Brother Sidney chip in as well on harmonies that are "down-home" and juuuuuuuuuuust right. If you have no interest in bluegrass gospel - this may not be for you. But if you DO - you really couldn't do better than this CD.

One of my all-time favorite CD's,
By "debhirsch55" (Long Beach, NY United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: I Know Who Holds Tomorrow (Audio CD)
I ordered this CD years ago from a club I belonged to and it quickly became one of my very favorites. The soaring vocals and harmonies thrill me always, but when I am "down in the dumps" they never fail to raise my spirits. The title track "I Know Who Holds Tomorrow" is especially uplifting. I have been a fan of Alison Krauss's beautiful voice and amazing instrumental talents for many years and buy most CD's I can find that she is a part of. The harmonies she shares with the Cox Family are incredibly beautiful, even for Alison's standards. Perhaps it is the spiritual aspect of this CD that makes it so wonderful. I recommend it to anyone who is inspired by and who loves music.
