Our Take
Our Take
New Riders of the Purple Sage have been ride-or-die (pun intended) for over 50 years now, and their latest compilation album, aptly titled "Best Of," is a delightful trip down memory lane for fans old and new.
This collection features all the classics you know and love, from the cosmic cowboys' signature blend of country and rock to their unmistakable harmonies that just scream "hippie vibes." Tracks like "Panama Red" and "Henry" will have you toe-tapping and head-nodding in no time, while lesser-known gems like "Gypsy Cowboy" and "Glendale Train" will have you wondering why they weren't bigger hits.
The band's twangy guitar riffs and laid-back vocals are as charming as ever, transporting you straight to a dusty old saloon in the wild west. It's hard not to feel a sense of nostalgia listening to these tunes, even if you weren't alive during the band's heyday.
But don't be fooled by their laid-back aesthetic - these guys can jam with the best of them. Songs like "Brujo" and "Contract" showcase the band's musical prowess and improvisational skills, proving that they're more than just a bunch of old hippies.
So grab your cowboy hat and saddle up for a wild ride with New Riders of the Purple Sage's "Best Of" - it's a trip you won't soon forget. Yeehaw!
