$16.98

| "Bobby Osborne's new country album, The Selfishness In Man (OMS Records), quote WSM DJ and country/bluegrass historian Eddie Stubbs' liner notes ("this is a truly fine album") and leave it at that, but just to be safe, let me explain. Bobby, the older of the two Osborne Brothers, is, in my opinion, one of the greatest singers of the century, with a high tenor voice that can sob or be sly as the song dictates." - Jon Weisberger, MoMZine |
| Caleb Klauder - Sings Out |
