Linda Kirkpatrick "BENEATH A WESTERN SKY" ©2006 (Independently Released) Review by Lucky Boyd Linda Kirkpatrick has always been a respected storyteller and poet. Her acclaimed book, "Somewhere In The West," is an insightful look into Kirkpatrick's life and history. Now she ventures out to the recorded word. Her poems and her delivery are crisp and 'cowboy' as she winds her way through seventeen tracks of Cowboy Poetry. Some are her own and some are covered, but all are delivered in heartfelt style, many with musical accompaniment. There are plenty of guests on the album as well. It's a well-rounded project that will surely turn heads in the Cowboy Poetry world. Quickly becoming a lost art, Kirkpatrick helps the genre along its trail to perpetuity. Covered on the disc is a poem by my good friend J.W. Beeson, one of the finest storytellers around. Kirkpatrick is adept at her craft and her sincere deliveries make this a fine disc for poetry enthusiasts. Get your copy today!
