Music reviews of The West
Music Review: Some good western tunes here!
Rating: 4 Stars
I bought this CD after seeing the odd episode or two of the original TV documentary by Ken Burns. I really liked the western style folk tunes (I think that's what you would call them?) that were featured as background music. The tunes I enjoy are those featuring Banjo, Guitar, Fiddle etc. such as Colorado Trail, Sweet Nebraska Land, Git Along Little Doggies and Across The Wide Missouri. This CD also includes a number of Native American tunes which personally don't interest me a great deal as most of them sound the same, not to be disrespectful. (I know what that's like though, I play old time banjo and most people tell me the tunes I play all sound the same!). There are also a couple of historical recordings such as The Old Chisolm Trail and California Humbug. Anyway the tunes I bought the CD for a great but there's only half a dozen or so of those. The rest I guess is a slice of 1800's western United States if that's what you're interested in.
