Festus of Gunsmoke sang with them also.

He was my hero when I was a kid. Roy Rogers, Dale Evan, Trigger and Buttermilk. I loved that show.

Good songs. Another one is called
“The Night Herder’s Song”. About the fellow who had to watch the little calves (Doggies) during the night, so that they would not wander off. Nicely done. A solo performance by a tenor. The song has a stillness, a nighttime feel about it.

Yes, this.

Also to include Pat Brady, Nellybelle the jeep, and Bullet, the wonder dog.

It’s amazing that we can remember all that like it was yesterday. Remember The Lone Ranger and Tonto? Hi-yo Silver!

Ken Curtis who did a few John Wayne movies, too. The Searchers chief along them.

Who was Buttermilk? Pet goat?

Pretty successful singer before turning actor - he was the Tommy Dorsey band vocalist between Sinatra and Dick Haymes. He was also John Ford’s son-in-law.

I recall my parents having stacks of the old “78 speed” LPs, pressed on vinyl that was thick as a brick. Dad had Son’s of the Pioneers in the collection. ‘Cattle Call’ and ‘Tumbling Tumbleweeds’ were my favorites.

Normally I don't care too much for stage names, but in this case, I think I'll make an exception.

Buttermilk was Dale Evans horse. Trigger was Roy’s palomino

Saturday mornings weren’t worth a darn without Gabby Hays, Andy Devine, Roy Rogers, Hopalong Cassidy and the rest. Times have sure changed. Rin Tin Tin used to entertain me too.

I’ve got a couple of Sons of the Pioneers CDs. Love their music. It never fails to make me think of what we’ve lost. I love hearing Roy and Dale sing.
