Excellent music.

(4 out of 5 stars)

"This album is very nice. I agree with the previous reviewer - their version of "Spirit of the West" is a well-arranged and beautiful tribute to the original. My only critique is that some of Don Ross' songs (which I've heard on his earlier albums) seem a bit too "polished" or "cleaned-up" when compared to their earlier, original recorded versions. There's something more raw and emotive about the original versions, in my humble opinion. But I still do enjoy the richness of texture that Andy McKee brings to the new arrangements of these songs. This album was a good purchase, and I urge others to buy and listen."
