Blues on the Range is a nice, but not particularly noteworthy, set of traditional blues. What makes the album worth a listen is Roy Rogers' facility as a slide player -- he can make his guitar sing. However, the quality of the songs and performances are slightly uneven, making it only of interest to die-hard fans. ~ Thom Owens
