Editorial Reviews
To be horseback in good country on a spring morning, waiting for the sound of those first bawling mommas with their babies coming into your part of the drive brings a sweet peaceful bliss that only one having been there could truly understand. It is my prayer that God will bless you with that same type of true and everlasting peace as you listen to this music. "Be careful for nothing, but in everything, by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and your minds through Christ Jesus." Phillippians 4:6-7
Thanks to Tommy, Bobby, Mark, Donny and all of you who helped make this project possible. But most of all to Our Lord for giving us the lyrics and for giving Tommy Allsup the interpretation needed to deliver them. I will forever be indebted to my dear brother, Dr Don Benton and his sweet wife Rose Marie for their encouragement and support. To my darling daughter Jenny, who patiently listened as I called her almost daily to sing her a new song that God had given us. She gave all she had in support right through to the project completion. A special thank you to The Tennessee Gentlemen for lending us your wonderful lead singer with his tremendous tenor voice, Mr Donny Catron. Last but not least, a very special thank you to those magnificent Wagon Fly Choir members, Tommy Allsup - baritone, Donny Catron - tenor, Mark Abbott - bass.

Lerner & Loewe Songbook.......2006-02-24
Wouldn't it be lovely?.......2005-09-26
The works of Lerner and Loewe were a mainstay of Broadway for decades in the 1950s, 60s, and 70s, but it was during the late 50s and early 60s that their true glory days took hold. The presidential term of John F. Kennedy gained the nickname 'Camelot' in part because of the influence of the Lerner and Loewe production going on at the start. The songs contained in these suites are instantly recognisable by many, as the Lerner and Loewe songs have become so well known that many know the songs better than the musicals or the composers from which they come. 'I Could Have Danced All Night' and 'Wouldn't It Be Lovely' come from 'My Fair Lady', 'Thank Heaven for Little Girls' from 'Gigi' - these are but the most of famous of the familiar tunes.
There are a lot of pieces here that the listener will appreciate, both in remembering old pieces or in learning new nuances to the tunes.
This particular disc by Telarc has a feature called 'Spatializer', which gives a three-dimensional quality to the sterophonic sound, enhancing regular players and working well with surround-sound systems, too. The Cincinnati Pops are expert at this kind of music, having produced dozens of CDs of popular music and modern composers of musicals, film music, and pops-oriented major compositions.
This is a fun disc to have.

Country Music People Review.......2004-07-16
Fletcher Jowers is an ex-Texas cowboy who took to writing songs of the Old West and for several years has been performing at many venues in the States. His easy-to-listen-to style and vocals describe clearly what life was like on the range.
All good songs need good musical accompaniment and Jowers certainly has that here. Bobby Boatright plays gentle and plaintive fiddle throughout while Tommy Allsup, who was Buddy Holly's guitarist at the time of Holly's death, plays lead guitar and also produced the album. Donny Catron, lead singer with the Tennessee Gentlemen, plays rhythm guitar while Mark Abbott adds some pretty tight bass fiddle to complete things. The latter three also produce nice harmonies to compliment Jowers' vocals.
The material is all of a gospel nature. The first nine songs are self-penned but, to close the set, Jowers sings Marty Robbins' classic, The Master's Call, which deally suits the album's theme. All are story songs and the title song, Church At The Wagon, has the hallmarks of a classic. It relates the tale of a cook who, before leaving on a trail drive to Abilene, buys an old bible from a peddler so that he can have a prayer meeting at the wagon every Sunday.
The tales are hugely enjoyable. Ol Snake is the story of a parson who makes a deal with cowboys that he will ride "the meanest bronc here on this place" if they will attend church. John Three Sixteen takes the quote of "For God so loved the world that He gave His only son," and uses it to relate the sad tale of Little Jake, who dies after his horse falls while chasing mavericks.
A Memory Of Jim also reminisces about the loss of an old friend.
You're Never Alone is a self-explanatory statement that God is always there for those who need help and, of course, there is a song about the cowboy's best friend in God Gave Us The Horse.
Story songs, great lyrics and simple, tuneful melodies. A great CD for those who like story songs of cowboy life similar to those performed by Red Steagall, Don Edwards and Michael Martin Murphy

There are voices that as soon as you hear them, they transport you to another time. Authentic, western, cowboy, ranch music are what Fletcher Jowers sounds like. He has one of those voices that is comfortable, like your favorite pair of worn, dusty boots. Fletcher reminds me of Sam Elliott ( Conager, Tombstone, "Beef it's whats for Dinner" ) and Ken Curtis ( Sons of the Pioneers, and later Festus on Gunsmoke ). Their voices are as recognizable ( and as Western ) as their faces. You hear those kinds of voices and you just know it's western ! You say to yourself, "I can relax now and enjoy. This is going to be a real western"...
"Church at the Wagon" is a cowboy gospel project. Fletcher has presented his brand of cowboy music throughout the country for several years. He has recieved several awards for his writing and recording of authentic cowboy music. "Church at the Wagon" contains nine original songs, along with Marty Robbins'.. "Masters Call"
The project's title cut is a story about a wagon cook "Coosi", who buys an old Bible from a peddler just before leaving out on the trail, bound for Abilene. He proclaims "We'll have church at the wagon".....
My personal favorites are "Ol Snake" , a story of a preacher making a deal with some cowboys that he will ride "Ol Snake", the meanest bronc on the place, in return for their church attendance. It all happens, and "Ol Snake" becomes the top horse in the string.
I also liked Fletcher's cover of Marty Robbins' "Masters Call". Marty could just plain write a song ! Fletcher does a great job with it.
The gut string guitar work on this album is really, really, well done. Tommy Allsup is the lead guitar player, and Tommy's guitar work really transports the feel of this CD "south of the Rio Grande." The mix and production on this CD is way above average. Besides Fletcher Jowers, other musicians listed are Tommy Allsup, ( lead guitar, rhythm guitar, harmony vocals ), Bobby Boatright, ( fiddle ), Donny Catron, ( rhythm guitar, harmony vocals ), Mark Abbot, ( bass fiddle, harmony vocals ), Mark Petty ( engineer ). It was recorded at ASC Recording, Dallas, Texas.
Fletcher Jowers and the group of backup musicians on this album just set a tone and feel for these songs, that make this album a nice, subtle, cowboy gospel listen....
