5.0 out of 5 stars true country music, November 2, 1999

By	Tracy Kaden (Washougal, Washington) - See all my reviews

This is what real country music is...I have really enjoyed listening to all of his music. My favorite song is Country Bumpkin, but all of the songs are good. I have already wore out the cassette tape that I had, this is why I ordered the CD this time.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Music from a Great Artist, March 30, 2009

By	D. Lyons - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The CD arrived in a timely manner. The quality of sound is good and Cal Smith's rich baritone voice comes through fine.I would buy from this vendor again.
