This generous, beautifully-recorded collection of traditional cowboy songs features the original members of the all-male Sons of the Pioneers, including Roy Rogers and Bob Nolan, and contains 18 accompanied recordings from their peak years of 1934-1941. "Blue Bonnet Girl," "Press Along the the Big Corral," the classic "Home on the Range," "Jesse James," "Round Up in the Sky," "Cowboy's Dream," and "Down Along The Sleeply Rio Grande" are some favorites. The rich harmonies, soaring fiddle leads, and folky, bluegrass lyrics make this a rich, generous collection from a more innocent era. |
