The Old West (1067)
This time around on the program, we’re looking at The Old West in terms of popular music and culture of the Atomic Age. When it came to h-fi music, there were plenty of albums released filled with themes from television and film Westerns. We'll cover that, and also have a few other surprises along the trail. We’ll hear from Buddy Morrow, Marty Robbins, Dean Martin, Johnny Gregory, and many others.
