this has always been one of my favorites I used to put the record on the player and put the arm back and this would play all day. I guess the youngsters never saw a 45rpm record player, but if you have you know what I am talking about.
I grew up in the seventies. But i loved old westerns old music. I always felt i was born in the wrong part of the century. I believe this country has lost its family values.
This was the 'unofficial theme song' for B Troop, 1/9 Air Cavalry Squadron, 1 Cavalry Division (Air Mobile) that I served with during my second tour in Vietnam

This song brings tears to my eyes remembering my youth and the wonderful music and songs that came from the people like the Sons of the Pioneers. Notice Roy Rogers on the right hand side who had a beautiful voice by himself.
Remember that music well. Just a kid. I would sit and listen to it on my dad and mom's. Record player. HeeHaw was on tv and we had 5 tv channels. Life was simple then. Dad went to work every day. Mom was at home. An I knew where I stood with my folks every day.God love them both. See you when my times up.
Excellent.
The original.
Notice the down at the chorus "ghost riders in the sky"
Most of the clones of this original do not have this.
