Product Description
Old Friends, Dave’s new CD of vintage Western music, is finally here. These are songs about which folks have asked, “When are you going to record that?” They run the gamut from well-known to obscure, from Stan Jones’ “Ghost Riders in the Sky,” to Jane Bowers’ haunting “Mission San Miguel;” from Gene Autry’s “Silver Haired Daddy,” to Joe Babcock’s “Dusty Winds.”
Recorded over an eight month period at Rick Sutton’s wonderful studio, this project finds Dave joined by Chris Scarbrough on guitar, Kenny Blackwell on mandolin, Julie Beaver on fiddle, Gary Allegretto on harmonica, and the amazing Annie Lydon on harmony vocals. Together, they treat these songs like the old friends they are, with respect and affection—because no matter where you’re headed, you need to remember where you came from.

I thoroughly enjoy listening to Dave Stamey’s music. He has a beautiful voice that I never grow tired of listening too. I enjoy the stories that he tells through some of his songs.

I have just discovered this delightful artist and he brought tears to my eyes! I grew up listening and singing along to these songs with my dad. I have always preferred listening to the original singers, but Dave Stamey has done it right! Absolutely enjoyable!
