My Rifle, My Pony & Me: Movie & TV Soundtracks
1-CD with 24-page booklet. Subtitled <b>Movie And TV Soundtracks</b>, this 26-song collection is the ultimate overview of songs that were memorable elements of the post-War Westerns. Opening with the voice of John Wayne introducing Dean Martin and Ricky Nelson, who sing this collection's title track from the 1959 film, <b>Rio Bravo</b>, the selections span 1948 (Roy Rogers singing <i>Don't Fence Me In</i>) to 1965 (James Stewart's <i>The Legend Of Shenandoah</i>). Along with such 'hits' of the genre as Johnny Horton's <i>North To Alaska</i>, Frankie Laine's <i>Rawhide</i>, and Johnny Cash's <i>The Rebel Johnny Yuma</i>, there are such unexpected singing cowboys as Kirk Douglas crooning <i>And The Moon Grew Brighter</i> from the 1954 film, <b>Man Without A Star</b>. The 24-page booklet, brimming with period art promoting the films and their songs, is the perfect visual complement to the music. Popcorn not included!
