A "cosmic cowboy" in the country-rocking '70s, Michael Martin Murphey revived his career as a cowboy traditionalist with this 1990 release. Mixing campfire chestnuts such as "Home on the Range, "I Ride an Old Paint," and "Happy Trails" with contemporary hokum such as "Cowboy Logic," the album returned the western to the music formerly known as country and western, and its success inspired a series of sequels on the Warner Western label. Though nothing here is as cloying as 1975's "Wildfire" ballad, Murphey's biggest hit, this smooth stylist emphasizes the romance rather than the grittier realities of the cowboy's life. --Don McLeese

Summary: Cowboy Songs Create a Mood 2008-08-31
Comment: Michael Martin Murphey gives us a variety of ballads that range from frolicsome, to romantic, to heart-rending. We listen to this music on the way to therapeutic horseback riding. It is a great way to get in the cowboy frame of mind.

Summary: Smooth collection. 2008-01-16
Comment: Got this for my husband. He really enjoys this CD. Gives him a nice change of pace from the radio for his drive to and from work or when we travel. Has good renditions of old songs by the Son's of the Pioneers, as well as some "newer" songs like Wildfire. Like Murphy's smooth full voice.

Comment: I would have given this guy 5 stars if he hadn't knocked me out of my Red River gig many years ago. But anyway, these are classic cowboy tunes, tastfully redone. In a word--great.

Summary: boatskipper texan 2007-01-04
Comment: This album has many classic cowboy songs which are superbly sung by MMMurphey, traditional but upbeat... not the GAutry & RRogers style... definitely singalong stuff.
My original disk had a play error and was promptly replaced by Amazon within days of notification. "Hats off" to customer service!
