Michael Martin Muphey's new "Heartland Cowboy" grew from his 
involvement with the PBS series, "America's Heartland." 
Unlike previous volumes of his work in mostly historic forms of 
cowboy music, "Heartland Cowboy" offers a more unsentimental and 
sometimes hard view of contemporary life outside the big city. 
This is not formula work. There is true art present - a dynamic 
range running through the entire human condition.
