Customer Reviews

Important Nostalgia
When I was about 10 years old in the early forties, there was a song on the radio I just loved. It made me laugh, and in hindsight, I realize it helped form my social consciousness. It had a line " A mouse chawin' on the pantry door, when he gets thru he'll sure be sore, cause ther ain't a durn thing in ther." A few years ago I tried to find it on the web, and only found references by other people who were also looking. A few weeks ago, I looked again, found that the composer and singer was Carson Robison, and discovered that a CD was just coming out featuring him and including my song. He is such an important early coutry/cowboy singer, I can't believe I never heard of him. I've never seen him included in any retropective of this music. Anyway, I love, love, love this CD, and enjoy so much hearing a favorite song of my youth. It has held up well thru the years. I enjoy it just as much now as I did then, and the knowledge of my years enriches it.

Carson Robison
Have been looking for at least two of the songs on this recording for more than 50 years. So glad to have them again. It was a good recording and a great supplier. Got the CD in just over a week from ordering.

This was an old old song and I'd forgot how much we have improved on them.
