Editorial Reviews

(CD with 40-page booklet) The success of Carl T. Sprague's 1925 recording of When The Work's All Done This Fall established the image of the singing cowboy in American culture. As a young man, Sprague learned cowboy songs on trail drives from an uncle who had worked as a cowboy from the late 1880s. Sprague's renditions are a direct link to a time when the poems and ballads, some of them centuries old, were first sung by the drovers who moved the great cattle herds out of Texas to Kansas following the Civil War. Here are all the surviving songs recorded by Sprague from 1925-1929. They represent some of the earliest pieces of the vast oral tradition of cowboy music that moved into the public consciousness at the dawn of commercial recording technology.
