C. Daniel Boling is currently not a Texan by residence. Ah, but he was for a long time, and it consumed his songwriting muse. Making his home in New Mexico keeps him close to his Texas roots and allows him to perform in Texas quite often. The music is definitely as Texan as anything you'll hear at Quiet Valley Ranch around Memorial or Labor Day. (Kerrville Music Festivals) Boling's voice is comfortable and warm, embracing each song in perfect Texas folk fashion. The 2000 release is "WELCOME HOME" (Perfectly Stable Music) and how fitting it is that Kerrville's buzz phrase is the same. C. Daniel Boling is an accomplished guitarist, making each song a delicate balance of meaningful lyrics and stylish music. Boling can hold his own with Dana Cooper in the way he moves through chord progressions with purpose and punctuality. In the same breath, his folk tunes could as easily be orchestrated to rock anthems due to the quality of the foundation of each song. This is a great folk album, and Boling does it without re-tuning his guitar to some different unimaginable open chord for each song. Thanks Daniel. Hey Texas music fans, listen and buy - repeat after me - listen and buy. Now C. Daniel Boling has released “THE OLD INTERNATIONAL” and it’s a thirteen-cut folk music masterpiece which includes wonderful orchestration, beautiful vocal arrangements, and meaningful lyrics. Boling also follows my golden folk music rule by keeping his songs at a modest length; average song length on this disc is about 3:40. If you liked Boling’s “WELCOME HOME,” you’ll love the new disc. It’s more Boling, it’s more beautiful, it’s more ‘better.’ Get it now for only $13.99! By the way, the packaging of the new CD is some of the best I've seen. It reminds me of the days when it was something special to buy a record album, listen to the music, and spend hours reading the album cover. You can do that with this disc. Yippee!
