It gives me a great deal of pleasure to introduce you to the piano music of Laban West. I met him and his family when I was president of Southwestern College in 1975. We attended Muse Memorial Church when Bill Anderson was the pastor. Laban was one of several gifted and talented pianists who faithfully ministered to our congregation in music. He had a touch on the piano and a style that was uniquely his own--pleasant, inspiring and uplifting. I have enjoyed hearing him play the piano at River of Life Church, formerly Muse Memorial Church, where Richard Goad is the pastor, whenever I was visiting in Oklahoma City for Chaplains Ministries, IPHC. Laban is excellent with worship teams, and for a season he taught at Southwestern College and directed the Great Life Singers.
I have received in the mail the CD Laban has graciously given to me. It is more than wonderful. It is great and easy listening. I hope you will consider purchasing one or more of his CD's--"The Covered Wagon Sessions." I am confident this CD will be a collector's item for years to come.
And now, a word from Laban West:
Dear friends, my piano instrumental album of traditional hymn tunes--"The Covered Wagon Sessions"--is finally here! These timeless melodies have been a blessing to me since I was a young child, and my hope is that God will use them to strengthen and encourage you throughout your daily journey.

The musical arrangements in the Covered Wagon Sessions vary from traditional four-part harmony to a light Gospel and jazz flavor. Whether you listen to these songs via mobile device, or as background music, I truly hope the timeless hymns and Gospel melodies will inspire you. It is also my sincere desire that as you are reminded of the words of each song, you will be blessed and encouraged in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
