Loved this album...it's fun how some classic american songs in country and other areas sound like Classical Art Songs. Check out "Riders in the Sky" "Blue Bayou" and the dogs in the last track. I smiled and laughed listening to it. Clearly this group of musicians were having fun!

I enjoyed the variety and listening to some opera stars I've heard elsewhere, but somehow they just don't seem to be given a chance to shine in their own individual styles or songs. It's fun to listen to these great voices sing cowboy music and you can imagine and feel the fun they had recording this. But... one song irritates me so much I don't play this as much as I like - they have gunshots going off and somehow as I'm driving through the streets of DC or sitting in my house I really don't like the shock of hearing a gunshot go off.
