Als er ‘The Ballad Of Paladin’ für Richard Boones TV Western-Hit 'Have Gun Will Travel' sang, betrat Johnny Western die Folklorewelt der 50er Jahre. Dieser Erfolg von 1957 begründete eine Karriere für Western, die ihn einige Jahre auch als Moderator und Support-Act für Johnny Cash touren ließ. Zur Zeit dieser eingangs der 80er Jahre entstandenen Aufnahmen, aufgenommen in Jack Clements Studio in Nashville, war Cashs Einfluss bei Western deutlich zu hören (‚Don't Take Your Guns To Town‘), ebenso seine Vorliebe für Titelsongs aus TV-Western. Diese Zusammenstellung mit 16 Songs enthält zwei Medleys aus beliebten TV-Serien (natürlich sind ‚Cheyenne‘ und ‚Ballad Of Paladin‘ dabei) sowie weitere Film-Titelsongs wie ‚High Noon‘, ‚The Hangin' Tree‘ und der Titelsong der Box.
Product Information
Johnny Western entered the folklore of the 1950s when he sang ‘The Ballad Of Palladin’ for Richard Boone's hit televison Western, 'Have Gun, Will Travel'. That 1957 success launched a career for Western which found him touring for several years as MC and opening act for Johnny Cash. By the time of these early 1980s recordings, made at Jack Clement's Nashville studio, Western showed the influence of Cash (‘Don't Take Your Guns To Town’) and a continued devotion to TV Western theme songs. This 16-track collection includes two medleys of songs from small-screen oaters (including ‘Cheyenne’ and, of course, ‘Ballad Of Paladin’) as well as such big-screen themes as ‘High Noon’, ‘The Hangin' Tree’, and the title track.
