You may want to check out David John & the Comstock Cowboys.  They have most of their CDs on Amazon.com.  Dave has written and recorded many good original Cowboy songs, including "Comanche" (about Captain Miles Keogh's horse, the only survivor of the Custer massacre).  Some of his stuff is Bluegrass, but the main emphasis is on Cowboy music.  They perform most weekends in Virginia City NV, at the Bucket of Blood Saloon.  Not only do they dress in period attire, and carry, but so do most of the patrons that come to see them. (Only in Nevada!)

Right now I'm enjoying the heck out of the album "Gunfight At OK Corral" sung by Johnny Western.

Favorites from the album are:

Ghost Riders In the Sky
Gunfight At OK Corral
Ballad Of Boot Hill
Johnny Yuma, The Rebel
Ballad Of Paladin
The Lillies Grow High
Cheyenne

The rest are great songs as well.

We were at the Amarillo Tx Ranch Rodeo, and Marshal and I got to hear a young artist called Kevin Davis.
His only CD out is called "This Cowboy's  Heart"..and every song tells wonderful stories about the days of cattle roundups,
and the cowboy way.

(((whispering))) You better save your thanks, until after you see your wife's reaction, Will. :-\
You may not only be scalped, but you may wake up a gelding. :o
