Information/Write-up

apparently it's a collection of early Alberta cowboy prairie music from the 1930's and 40's from the perspective of an American; featuring John White, Edward L. Crain, Tex Ritter and Fred Kirby (all Americans). and oh yeah, a little Wilf Carter sprinkled in to give it that Albertan flavour...albeit, early Albertan cowboy music is extremely sparse.
