Bargain-priced bonanza

"For anyone who loves western music, the Sons of the Pioneers are essential listening, and this collection of 4 CD's provides 100 beautifully reproduced studio recordings from the 1930s through the 1950s. There are earlier and later versions of "Cool Water," "Tumbling Tumbleweeds," and "Chant of the Wanderer," plus such gems as "Hills of Old Wyoming," "Timber Trail," "Out California Way," "The Last Roundup," "River of No Return," and "Montana." My only complaints are that the enclosed 50-page booklet is riddled with errors and omissions and that the selections include some dross and omit such classics as "Wagon Wheels," "Love Song of the Waterfall," and "Along the Navajo Trail.""
Good box set

"Just great tunes. The only problem is that they are all not there. This set is missing some great songs from the Memories from the lucky U ranch album. Instead there are multiple renditions of the same songs but 90% of this set's content is free of repeats. Great value for good recording quality of some great music."
