This review is from: Singing Cowboy 1 (Audio CD)

Varese Sarabande presents somes marvelous soundtracks from Gene's early days in films - "The Singing Cowboy, Chapter One" features sixteen songs from his rise to superstardom in "horse-operas".

Gene maintained his own coterie of fine songwriters to keep him supplied with original tunes - his wondrously effective singing voice was warm, reassuring and nostalgic.

"TUMBLING TUMBLEWEEDS" and "BACK IN THE SADDLE AGAIN" were big Autry recordings and became movie titles...and "GHOST RIDERS IN THE SKY" became a classic for him and other recording artists.

Hats off to Varese Sarabande and Gene for releasing some of the most memorable songs from his heyday in Western Films...this is a must have for all "western-music-film-buffs" from those thrilling days of yester-year!

Total Time: 28:19 on 16 Tracks...Varese Sarabande VSD-5840...(1997)

As an avid Gene Autry collector I have all the movies from which these sound tracks were taken. The songs on this CD have been digitally remastered. The sound is great and once you have heard them, just remember there is a great movie that you may want to see that goes with each song. If you loved the songs in the Autry movies then this is one of the CD's you will enjoy. It is a wonderful tribute to the movie career of the Greatest Cowboy, singer and entertainer that ever lived.
