This is the ultimate Chris LeDoux collection of his later music, after he gained widespread fame by being mentioned as one of Garth Brooks' influences. If you like classic country music, without frills and too many "rock and roll" riffs, you'll love this collection. Of course, if you've ever seen Chris in concert, you know that he can rock with the best of them, however, he has always remained true to his Western roots. I've been seeing him in concert nearly every year since 1990, and he is a perennial favorite, especially here in my home state. Having also met him once, he's a true gentleman and an old-fashioned cowboy through and through. If you want a taste of his earlier work, I'd also recommend the "American Cowboy" boxed set, featuring music he performed in his earlier career and back when he was a rodeo champion. An honest, straightforward approach has worked for him all these years, and he's never changed that. If it ain't broke, don't fix it!!

Chris,

Is is Truly one understimated artist. When I think of cowboys, I think of Mr. Ledoux.

I have his CD, greatest 20 hits. But, clearly that would not do justice to the man. buying this box set was a great way to give me a better understanding of his music. and what he means to Cowboys, Rodeo, country music, and his influence on artists like Garth Brooks.

We miss you Chris, and may you rest in peace sir.

i never wrote a review before but i had to for this cd i think it is great i followed chris' career off and on and was sad to here he died. this cd is for old friends of chris and new comers i think it is worth 5 stars others say ameican cowboy well i have to get that one but i think this is great

Great product, better than described, very fast shipping... Many songs in this collection I had never heard before. Need to find a good deal on the other CDs.

Very happy with the albums on the Cds of Chris Ledoux. I'm a country music , Karaoke fan and the songs he sings are pure Cowboy. I've owned a horse, been involved with cattle, and done some of the things necessary to survive that way of life. I thank the folks I ordered from for their expeditious handling of my purchase and will use them again.

This comprehensive collection had every song I could imagine you would want from Chris.

I was disappointed in the fact that I already had 3 of the CD's. I feel it was unclear in the description what all the CD's were. I thought it would be a "collection" on 6 CD's, instead it was 6 separate CD's that had already been released.

why do 2 box sets that overlap each other? this set has (atleast) 10 cuts you can find on the American Cowboy set, now yes, there are the other good cuts that are on here (the Stampede cd, for example, is awesome). But in my mind, if you want his best stuff,just get AC since it gives a better (and more rounded) view of his carreer
