5.0 out of 5 stars Remastered Gem, December 31, 2004

This review is from: Reach for the Sky (Audio CD)

A terrific CD release from the short lived Capricorn reissue series of the late 90's. This was the first album by the band and featured the original line up which lasted thru 5'll Getcha'Ten. A great mix of acoustic and electric material which benefits from a top notch remastering job using the original master tapes. While this doesn't cover as much material or time as the earlier CD compilation, "A Different Time" (supposedly recalled due to licensing issues), it is more of a snapshot in time when the band were a bit more acoustic but no less brillant. The songwriting and vocals are still classic Scott Boyer/ Tommy Talton and the remastering brings them right up front. Long overdue for a CD release, the only negative is that it has become fairly hard to find these days.

i too have the double lp "why quit when yourlosing" it contains the other album "5'll getcha 10" along with "reach for the sky" i wish someone would reissue that double lp on disc. this is great stuff from the old school southern rock genre.i always said there never would have been any "eagles" without bands like this...

5.0 out of 5 stars Brings back memories!, December 11, 2002

I have a double LP that contains all of these Cowboy titles. It is called "Why Quit When You're Losing" but it doesn't play too well with all the scratches. I was elated to find this CD. I highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys good old country rock.
