This review is from: Memories of the Range: Standard Radio (Audio CD)

This may be one of the finest works by The Sons of the Pioneers. The group has been around since the 1930's. In this album, you'll see why they've stood the test of time. The music is true to form--a wide range of songs but all have "the scent of saddle leather" and the true Pioneer brand on them. The technical sound is excellent; sounds like the songs were digitally remastered. This album includes some of the finest talent from the Men Out West!
