What A Wonderful Surprise!,
By A Customer
This review is from: A Prairie Portrait (Audio CD)
Beautiful orchestral rendetions of Yellow Rose of Texas, Streets of Laredo, Ghost Riders in the Sky and more. Orchestra accompanying Don's songs and Waddie's poetry was just perfect. And when Don finished singing Shenandoah, I was clapping just like I had been sitting in the concert hall!

Try something different!,
By EMC "neelie klop" (Sierra Vista, AZ USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A Prairie Portrait (Audio CD)
Don and Waddie shine on this album! When I first heard they had done a project with a symphony orchestra, I thought to myself that this would be one CD by Don Edwards that would never get into my collection. I hestitated for a long time to purchase it, but kept looking for information about it to get feedback from others. I love cowboy music and poetry and I enjoy orchestral music, but the concept of putting these very different styles together was a bit beyond my comprehension. But I'm so glad I bought it and I find myself listening to it quite often. The haunting words, the beautiful sounds from the orchestra, Don's smooth-as-silk drawl and Waddie's wistful recitations all come together beautifully in this collection. I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys taking a bit of a chance in exploring something a little different. The two songs I find most poignant are "Roundup In The Spring" and "Annie Laurie." I wish I could have been present when the actual performance took place! It's a beautiful production in every way.

This review is from: A Prairie Portrait (Audio CD)
This CD contains some vintage Don Edwards & Waddie Mitchell with some
Classical Orchestration thrown in for good measure. A beautiful blending of Music & Song with the Poetry majisty of Waddie Mitchell probably not for the Cowboy traditionalist but well worth a place in my music library none the less.
