Repertoire - Old Time Country - Western

 

Brings back one’s childhood. The Bard Rocks ‘ early ambition was to be a cowboy, how original was that in the ‘50’s?. Little did he know that this  would come true, though hardly as he  had visualized - he became involved with dairy cows at age 23, and still is to some degree. These songs have nothing to do with milk,  however, but they have a lot to do with trail dust, blue skies, arroyos and the range. Some are old, folk songs, and  others are from the age of western swing, popular when he was a kid. It represents the other, the forgotten half of “Country and Western” music, remember that?
