Biography

Editorial Reviews

If you are a Chris LeDoux fan, or just a fan of good ol' country music, this is a must-have box set for your collection. This noteworthy offering contains three compact discs; that's three full-length compact discs with more than two and half hours' worth of music on them -- 54 tracks altogether. American Cowboy carries a number of LeDoux's most popular songs, including "Amarillo by Morning," "Look at You Girl," "Cadillac Ranch," "Whatcha Gonna Do With a Cowboy?," "Workin' Man's Dollar," and "Riding for a Fall." American Cowboy covers a lot of LeDoux's long career, pulling together recordings he did in the '70s, '80s, and '90s. Many of the tunes on these albums are Western or cowboy-style numbers, the kind of storytelling songs about that simple way of life that LeDoux is known for. Inside the box set are a number of photos of the artists, as well as a booklet about his life. ~ Charlotte Dillon, All Music Guide All Music Guide

December 02, 2000: I think chris ledoux is a great countrysinger and I hate that streamline country from Nashville.In fact,we can`t hear the difference between countrymusic and pop anymore.And a final kick to the artists.It`s allright with ballads,but we need fast tracks too to get that honky tonk feeling. Skedsmo westernclub in Norway rules.
