LINER NOTES: When it came time to select the headline performer for Gene Autry's 90th birthday party, there was no question. There is only one Don Edwards. Historian, author, musicologist and soulful balladeer, Don embodies the spirt and romance of the American West — not only through new works, but by reaching into the past and bringing the authentic poetry and music of the 1800s and early 1900s to new audiences. A favorite at every Santa Clarita Cowboy Festival since its inception, Don has won every award in the genre, but more importantly, he has given us a rich legacy to ensure that the West will never die.
