I have had this cd for about a year and it is truely the best cd that I own. Not one bad song on it. Chris has a voice that is raw but awesome and his songwriting is incredible. Paints a picture with every song that he sings. If you don't have this cd, YOU MUST GET IT!!!!!

R is for resonating A is for awesome D is for delightful N is for n-lightening E is for entertaining Y is for yummy I love this record. It's nifty.

Bruce is a dynamic musician whose lyrics capture raw and passionate emotion in a truly heartfelt manner. His music soothes the soul and can be played on continuous mode for hours without tiring. In short, he rocks my world.

Pat- This c.d. is awesome. I love how the songs are true. Best Yet!

It was good, but 1st c.d. was better. Can;t wait until 3rd one!

I have had this cd for about 2 years and still listen to it at least once a day. This guy is great , too bad most people have never heard of him.

I caught their show at the Golden Light in Amarillo a while back and was blown away. If traditional country is your thing you better check these guys out while they are still playing around here. I was disappointed that they had to play on a Thurs. night. I hung out till about 2 am even though I was leaving out for work at about 6 am. It was well worth it, and I will not miss another show in Amarillo. I hope I can catch these guys while I am working in Dallas.

The Funniest singer songwriter in texas. Saw him at the Big Bammbo Bash

Excellent! Two thumbs up!

Every now and then an artist comes along that not only adds background music to our lives, but adds songs to the soundtrack. For some people those artists would be the Grateful Dead or Phish, and for others Jimmy Buffett. But, for most of us reading this review, those artists are Jerry Jeff, REK, and Steve Earle. Some might even add a Todd Snider or a Pat Green to that list, and others will add who they must - but I am writing this review - so I put Jason Boland and the Stragglers at the top of that list. I have followed Jason and his band for over a year and they always deliver. I recently had the great fortune to go to Amarillo for the "Happenin' on the High Plains", and witness Andy Pate, Macon Greyson, and Roger Creager perform with Jason. By the time Creager finished his amazing set (this was the first time I saw him and he blew me away), I didn't think there was a way Boland would be able to keep the energy level going. Then the band opened with "Ponies"...and I thought The Golden Light was going to put Amarillo's Electric company out of business. The Stragglers live show matches anyone in the state (including Steve Earle, REK, and Pat Green). "Pearl Snaps" which is produced by Lloyd Maines is truly one of the most complete albums you will ever own. I know much has been said about these "Boys from Oklahoma" on this site, but don't let the fact that they aren't from Texas keep you from ordering this CD. The lyrics on this disc are poems we have all written ourselves, about ourselves. Jason Boland and the Stragglers will make you remember songs you have never heard.....
