COMMENTS:
Janet McBride, National Champion Yodeler and personal friend of Patsy Montana: “Patsy would have been proud of Terri’s performance of Cowboy Sweetheart”

Buck Page, of “The Riders of the Purple Sage”: “Patsy would have loved your rendition of her song, “I Want To Be A Cowboy Sweetheart”

Ranger Doug, Riders in the Sky: “Straightforward and unpretentious as a western handshake, fresh as a prairie sunrise, merry as a sparkling yodel, that’s Terri Taylor, the Epiglottis Goddess. And in this collection of songs Terri displays above and beyond her obvious talents as a singer and yodeler a generous gift as a songwriter as well. She is the real deal, a triple threat and this collection is a celebration of her fine talent, of the revival of pure western music and of the grandeur of the West itself. So saddle up and let Terri yodel her way into your heart and take you on a whirlwind ride through the West”.
O.J. Sikes, Western Music Assoc. CD Review: “For many years, the Western Music Assoc. has had a reputation for having the best (and prettiest) yodeling cowgirls around. The newest Champion, Terri Taylor, carries on that great tradition. Terri wrote 7 of the 10 songs on her CD and other artists would be well advised to take a listen to this new material…”

Dan Seals, After performing as the opening act for Dan Seals in 2003, his comment was, “Turn around…I want to see if your clothes still fit because Lady, you yodeled your a_ _ off!”
