Too Late to Cry is the debut solo album by American violinist/singer Alison Krauss, released in 1987.[1][2] It was her first album for Rounder Records.
The Philadelphia Inquirer wrote: "Unlike most young fiddle players, who tend to be stiff and earnest, Krauss has a loose, jazzy swing to her playing; unlike most young country singers, who tend to be loose in their phrasing, Krauss is rather stiff and earnest."[4]The Washington Post stated that Krauss's "piercing, country-bred soprano occasionally recall Emmylou Harris at her best, and her fiddle breathes gales of life into tunes like 'Dusty Miller'."[5]
