Review in a respected publication:"FOLLOWING THE STARS: MUSIC AND MEMORIES OF HOPALONG CASSIDY" is by Roger Hall, the boy who met Hopalong Cassidy in 1950. The CD-ROM is a memory scrapbook of Hoppy material: songs in Cassidy movies, Hoppy children's albums, list of music composers and musical groups in Hoppy films, sheet music covers, hundreds of graphics and photos, plus music files. A nice supplement to the two current HC [Hopalong Cassidy] books with material not contained in either."
-- Boyd Magers, Western Clippings #90 (July/August 2009).
