5.0 out of 5 stars A Tear For Old Shep, December 22, 2004
I'm a sucker for schmaltzy songs, and "Old Shep" fits the bill. I have also heard Elvis' version of this song, but no one, and I mean no one, can wring the emotions out of you with this song like Walter Brennan. If you're not in tears by the end of this song, you're not human.

This whole CD is a great throwback to the days of the family farm and family life, all with a strong religious foundation. Throw in some cowboy and prospector flavors, and you wind up with a great piece of Americana. These "songs" are not sung - they are essentially spoken stories set to music, sometimes with back-up singers thrown in. You couldn't find a more fitting voice for these songs than Walter Brennan's.

This CD will probably appeal most to people, like me, who knew of this music and Walter Brennan from our youth. I would suggest reviewing the song samples before ordering, as this style of music, along with its now-dated style of musical arrangement, is not for everyone. I, however, was pleased to find this available on CD and added it to my collection as soon as I discovered it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Preserving the past, February 22, 2002
By Roger Lusk (Apo, AE United States) - See all my reviews
I am sure that all fans of Walter Brennan will be thrilled with this CD, it preserves musical history, some of these songs were hits, maybe not big ones, but all are very well narrated tales by a master storyteller. I think that people who didn't know of Walter Brennan before, would enjoy these stories today as much as we did then. If you never had a grandfather that told you stories when you were a child, here is your chance now, don't miss it!

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best of Nostalgia, August 3, 2000
By Graham Anderson (Lower Templestowe, Victoria Australia) - See all my reviews
Well Walter Brennen should be in every home, it would have to come under the heading of naration, Listen to the message within they are funny, tear jerkers, so readily able to relate to. I remember when I first heard these they were on 78's, boy am I glad they reproduced these as it would be a shame not to give other generations the chance to hear such tracks.Just think they are the very best, and I know of a lot of people that love the opportunity to listen, it gives such enjoyment.
