Music reviews of Cowgirl Dreams

Music Review: First of two great western albums from Joni
Rating: 5 Stars

This is the first of two traditional country albums with a strong western flavor that Joni recorded on the Warner Western label. It now seems that there will be no more as I cannot access Joni's website any more. On this album and its follow-up (After all), Joni sings honest country songs, with traditional acoustic backing. Joni wrote all the songs, jointly with others, which have been inspired by Joni's life on a ranch, and of that type of lifestyle in general.

The western theme is most obvious in the opening Belle Starr (about a contemporary of Jesse James) and the closing Long hard ride, but many of the other songs are full of western images. However, my favorite song here, Catalog dreams, is one of the few that could work in almost any setting - it is about a poor family dreaming about what they could buy from a catalog if they had money.

Joni is in fine voice throughout on this very upbeat album. For those seeking traditional country music, it doesn't come any better than this, with or without the cowboy songs.
