Album Description"Cowboys & Pirates" is the ninth album from internationally acclaimed singer/songwriter Barry Crompton, and the first to present Crompton the way many of his fans know him best -solo and acoustic. A recorded version of his popular live set, the album is a mix of well crafted Crompton originals and cherry picked covers. From the good time feel of "Time Off For Bad Behavior", to the singalong "Desert Rose", to the croonings of the classic "Slow Boat to China", this is Crompton doing what he does best -singing and playing his heart out. For those who haven't yet caught Crompton live this is a great introduction. For those who already have it's a great souvenir. A guitar, a voice, and a heart. A lot of heart.
