What they're saying about The BAR-D Roundup: Volume Three (2008):

"The 2008 Bar-D Roundup takes listeners across the breadth of the North American West: from the days of the early Texas cowboy to the Yukon gold rush, from once-legendary cattle ranches to modern-day family outfits. Like the two previous volumes which received critical acclaim, Volume Three is a must for the comprehensive Western audio collector or the person just learning about cowboy poetry."
                                            Jeri Dobrowski, Cowboy Jam Session

"If you hear somebody wonder at the 'why' of perpetuating the Western ethic, the Cowboy Way and particularly 'why cowboy poetry,' here's the answer for all of it. This collection clearly says what this important, artful communication of the heart conveys at its best."
                                                                   Rick Huff, Best of the West Reviews

"This is a CD to own and listen to often. It's like a full-course meal with each dish adding to the flavors and textures. The last poem is like dessert: the voice of Robert Service reciting his own 'The Cremation Of Sam  McGee.' The previous two CD were good. This one is great."
                                                                    PJ and Dallas McCord, hosts of The Cowboy Culture Corner

What they're saying about The BAR-D Roundup: Volume Two:

 "...something for everyone who appreciates tales of ranching, riding, and roping..."
                                                Associate Editor Kyle Partain, Western Horseman
 

"Prepare for a trip through time. There are classics and pieces written about times long gone. Also included are glimpses into the lives of modern cow hands, ranchers, ranch wives, farriers, and poets...Close your eyes and be carried along with an ebb and flow of emotions and imagery. Wrapped within the subject matter and interpretations there’s sincerity, intimacy, good-natured joshing, wisdom, respect, hogwash, poignancy, and spirituality."
                                                     Jeri Dobrowski, Cowboy Jam Session  

 "...It is well produced, well presented, and well worth listening to. You'll want this recording (along with Volume One from last year) in your collection."
                                                                                    Cowboy Magazine

"...a treasury in every sense of that word..." 
                                                                           Rick Huff, The Western Way
