Harry James - Harry James His Western Friends
Review by Song Bird Grand Mother
Harry James His Western Friends is a fantastic album that showcases Harry James' exceptional talent as a musician. The album features a variety of Western-themed tracks, including classics like "Ghost Riders in the Sky" and "Cool Water," as well as lesser-known gems like "The Eyes of Texas" and "The Yellow Rose of Texas."
One of the standout features of the album is James' incredible trumpet playing. His solos are truly awe-inspiring, and he manages to infuse each track with a sense of energy and excitement that is impossible to ignore. Additionally, the Western-themed arrangements are top-notch, with plenty of twangy guitars, fiddles, and harmonicas to give each track an authentic Western feel.
The guest performers on the album are also top-notch. From the smooth crooning of Frank Sinatra on "I'm an Old Cowhand" to the lively vocals of the Andrews Sisters on "Don't Fence Me In," each guest brings their own unique flavor to the album.
