Best known for their long tenure on the public radio mainstay A PRAIRIE HOME COMPANION, folk-pop duo Robin and Linda Williams return with the gentle concept album BUENA VISTA. A meditation on small-town life centered on the Virginia town of the same name, the roots of country music (particularly on the outstanding "Maybelle's Guitar and Monroe's Mandolin"), and the joys of growing old gracefully, BUENA VISTA is a relaxed blend of pop, country, folk, and bluegrass. Guests include bluegrass great Jerry Douglas.
