Glenn Johnson Have a box set on Bear Family label CD`s of Frankie`s 50`s recordings.It helped replace some of my missing and scratched 78`s.However, i loved his recordings and still have some of the 78`s, so its good to see these 78`s, particularly this one, that i never owned.Thanks Al.

Great song, I used to love western movies. I don't have a TV to watch the Christmas reruns.

As a film buff who has seen all these classics a million times, its always nice to be reminded of them by their soundtrack, though, in fairness, the competition was stiff then, as the quality was very high all round...Bridge on the River Kwai was a better movie, and won fair and square in every caregory, and that soundtrack, ACH...unforgettable...Or as the YouTube cliché goes, they sure don't make them like they used to...as much as I hate everyone who says that!...😁
