Loving Texas all the way from England  Nov 17, 2001
Speaking as a displaced Texan living abroad in the UK, I loved this CD. It made my heart do flip-flops just thinking about my beautiful homeland. This compalation is one all Texans should have in their collection. If nothing else for Moe Bandys Deep in The Heart of Texas and two great songs by the Vaughn brothers. One more thing, if ya haven't been to Texas, ya better get there pretty darn quick. The people are friendly, the air is clean, and there's plenty of room. I love ya TEXAS!

Texas Music at its Finest  Jun 21, 2000
No other state can claim as wide a pectrum of good music as Texas. When you set out to produce a CD called 'A Taste of Texas', you find that there is no way to, indeed, present a true taste of Texas. The lineup of tunes presented on this disc truly represent Texas Music. George Jones, Willie Nelson (born in Abbott, TX), Kris Kristofferson, Stevie Ray Vaughan (born near Dallas, TX)....

While the lineup is impressive, it sadly leaves many things out. Texas Music without Jerry Jeff Walker, without Robert Earl Keen, Jr., without Buddy Holly, without Townes Van Zandt? Oh well.

The Texas Music movement is gaining momentum, with artists like Jack Ingram breaking on to the scene in Nashville, and home grown heroes like Pat Green and Willie Nelson drawing sell out crowds at dancehalls and venues across the state. This compillation is important for anyone who is interested in Texas Music--sort of a starting point. While some glaring omissions kept this disc from earning five stars, it is one that I spin every chance I get.
