Let The Cowboy Dance by Michael Martin Murphey is our tune today and you will find it on his 1990 CD Cowboy Songs. "Cowboy Songs is the sixteenth album by American singer-songwriter Michael Martin Murphey and his first album of cowboy songs. The album peaked at number 25 on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart." Willie & Waylon went their way in revolting against the "Nashville Sound", and MMM cut the hobbles and went his way---and demonstrated one could have commercial success singing traditional cowboy and western songs.
