Customer Reviews One important correction... I just want to amend the previous review -- there is one key member from the original New Riders on these tracks: the lead singer/songwriter John "Marmaduke" Dawson. Just Okay I don't know who owns the name "New Riders Of The Purple Sage", but this is NOT the same band that played "Panama Red". It's sad when a band name becomes public-domain. I've seen the same thing happen to "The Flying Burrito Brothers". None of the band members are originals, but the sound is true to the original. There are no stand out songs, there is no stand out singing. But this is a pleasant effort nevertheless. You could do a lot worse. Everybody's heart is in the right place and I'm glad to have this CD as part of my collection. Just be forewarned- this is not your father's "New Riders". .
