My father's favorite tune. He has been gone for 66 years Dec 30. I'm 72. Oldest Cowboy song on the planet. I pic and sing it now and again.....But not like Ian. What a loss!

Beautiful shots of Ian with his beloved horses. Hearing him in full voice singing “Home on the Range” was a treat, and why we loved this amazing singer/songwriter. 🎶❤️ R.I.P., Ian. 😇 Thank you for the music.

Agreed.

[@BDFAN65]

@Sherry Rayn Barnett Yes, you have good taste 🙂. Ian sure will be missed...Lloyd :)

One of the best

[@TimEvans64]

I often wonder if some of the best singers just don't end up insanely popular so that those of us that appreciate their talent get the full measure of their gifts. It's not diluted by fad or populism and we are the grateful recipients of such beauty.
