“ I'm from Oklahoma and I hope this gets back to Ian himself! I love the music he sings and I pick the guitar and sing the old country and bluegrass! He's the real cowboy that's living!! ”

“ One of the great cowboy singers, he is one of my recommendations for anyone who is interested in the west and its people. Chris LeDoux, Red Steagal, Don Edwards, Michael Martin Murphey are there too. We do need a cowboy music category. ”
