The Most Awesome DVD
This is an incredible DVD. the sound ,the performers. . all this for one price. . I saw the live performance. ,but this was wonderful. Well worth the money.


Oldies but goodies
Must have if you enjoy the "older" country singers. Great sounds from a trio of vintage singers.


Going through the motions
The material is OK, but it sounds like the performances were phoned in and these guys never actually sang *together* during the recording process. I had hoped for better (a lot better---if I weren't so disappointed, it probably would have been a 3).

Last of the Breed
Ray Price is particularly impressive, when at 82 he can still hit those deep base notes that he made so popular 35 years ago. An outstanding album by three men who are indeed, the "Last of the Breed". Willie's voice is starting to crack a little, but his guitar playing is still excellent. Merle Haggard has lost some of the outlaw approach he had and has mellowed enough to have improved in singing and personality. Back up by the Cherokee Cowboys, Asleep at The Wheel, and excellent support by Micky Raphael on the harmonica and others are simply supurb. .


Turn back the pages of time.
That's about all you need to know. This CD features three country music Hall of Famers singing old country songs (with one of two newer songs). It's all very charming and old school. If you like old time country music, you will certainly enjoy this.
