5 out of 5 stars Traditional musicianship at its finest.......2005-08-10

I first heard The Trail Band on the Oregon Trail (of all places!). It was actually the last night on Cycle Oregon in about 2000 in the town of Dufur. They were on stage with Mt. Hood in the backround and absolutely electrified the crowd on a cool autumn evening. Their musicianship was superlative and radiated over the wheat fields of central Oregon like radiant diamonds. Their albums capture this music superbly (though capturing that evening would be impossible). Highly recommended.

5 out of 5 stars Wonderful Recording of Old-Time Music.......2002-12-03

I bought this as a cassette years ago when we first vacationed in Oregon. We've listened to it for years and love it. There are fun sing-along type songs that the family really enjoys, and I cry evey time I listen to "What We Left Behind". I really like the sound of this group - it's 'old-time' music, but it has a beautiful sound, not 'twangy' but rich and mellow. I'm thrilled to find these recordings in CD-format and I'm sure you'll enjoy them.

5 out of 5 stars TRAIL BAND CAPTURES OREGON TRAIL IN A SPECIAL WAY.......2000-07-30

I bought this CD at a museum along the Oregon Trail during the summer of 1999. What a wonderful collection of music and readings from diaries. Includes music ranging from the spirit of adventure to the despair of weary travelers. Also includes Native American music. I must say that listening to this CD while traveling the Oregon Trail, made the trip more memorable. however,listening to this CD at home, one is transported back to the days of those who crossed the country...and one is reminded of the Native Americans. Great for adults and children. As an educator, I would recommend this CD for social studies. I would also recommend this CD for musical groups who would be inspired to take a period in history and create music in the spirit of the music of that time. Good for language arts due to the spoken diary entries. Well worth the multiple listenings. Thank you Trail Band.
