Description
Now 78 and still active, Tyson, or ‘Raven Singer’ — a name bestowed upon him by the Nakoda (Stoney) First Nation — returns with his first new album in four years. Ian Tyson remains one of the most significant figures in the folk/roots world — and in the world of Western music there are few artists who have better sung the stories of the vanishing cowboy tradition. From his early success with Ian & Sylvia in the ‘60s and his breakthrough country rock work with Great Speckled Bird, to his success as a songwriter (‘Four Strong Winds’, ‘Someday Soon’, ‘Summer Wages’, ‘Navajo Rug’, etc.) Tyson’s solo career has always reflected his life as a rancher in Alberta, Canada. Ian Tyson’s songs have been recorded over the years by Johnny Cash, Bob Dylan, Marianne Faithfull, Neil Young, Blue Rodeo and countless others. This release comes on the trail of two recent books on Ian’s life - his autobiography, The Long Road, and a biography on Ian and Sylvia. “(America’s) disappearing West has no better spokesman than Ian Tyson� LA Times -
