...interpretation of each other's material. Jackson's vocal style, however, is difficult to define. It's a kind of bluegrass-nasal which has been mellowed by his recent emphasis on family life. As for his back-up band, the center of attention will be focused upon a guitar mastermind whose credits include electric fiddle, in addition to lead, pedal steel, and slide guitar. Although you won't be able to see both Jackson and Bonnie in concert together, you can see them separately, monetary conditions permitting. As far as how they would have been together, that's left...
