Thanks for being a purist, Kat. Gogie Grant had a huge hit with this song, but Frankie Laine's is superior. I've always wished that Gene Pitney had done this one. It would have suited his voice perfectly.
Dan,
You're welcome, Dan, but it was an easy choice.
I agree about Gene Pitney.
I wish to enter my vote for Patsy Cline on her album "Faded Love".
I think Frankie's biggest hit was probably Rawhide.Whic makes me think of those westerns I use to watch on TV like:
Wagon Train,
Maverick,
The Rebel,
Gunsmoke,
The Big Valley,
Paladin,
The Lone Ranger,
Rawhide,
Bonanza,
Cheyanne,
Sugarfoot,
F-Troop,
and I know I forgot a few..
A little trivia here. "What western or musical of that type on the big screen did Clint Eastwood actually sing in" ? ?
give up? it was the muscial movie show..."Paint Your Wagon" also starring Lee Marvin
Morphy,
I actually knew the answer to that without looking!
You have a few of my favorites on your list. That would be Maverick, Paladin and F Troop!
I am amazed at how I grew up with so many westerns. As a kid I watched Rin Tin Tin, The Lone Ranger, Annie Oakley, Buffalo Bill and so many more.
Minicapt,
I didn't know she sang that song, but I really don't know many Patsy songs.
