5.0 out of 5 stars Yodeling is not a lost art form, it just needed a new voice., August 5, 1999

Through the fogs of San Francisco emerge a few long awaited stars. John Dilks & the Visitacion Valley boys have captured the charm and finesse of the music held popular in the late 30's and 40's, known as Western Swing. As a hobby, Dilks has a passion for restoring antique furniture, and lucky for us, he is helping restore the foundation of an entire era gone by.

This is a great country music CD. This is real country music in the tradition of Hank, Ernest, Lefty, et al. If you don't know who these people are there isn't much chance you will like this unless you have an open mind.
If you like Big Sandy and his Fly Right Boys or Wayne Hancock, you will be glad you got this one.
