Hi Paula. I remember this TV version of Gunsmoke's theme, as well as your other extended Gunsmoke opening contribution. Terrific! Have you ever heard Rex Khouri's radio version of the Gunsmoke theme? Beautifully done, with that haunting arpeggio guitar. Regards, John

Hi John, No, I haven't heard Rex Khouri's version of this song. Is there somewhere on the web where I can find it to listen to it? Thanks for taking time to share your thoughts with us. It's greatly appreciated! :o)

FYI: That's actually the 1969-1971 version of the theme.

If you are the one that just made my video rating go down, that wasn't a nice thing to do. :o( The source where I got this song stated that it was the 1967 version. How was I suppose to know it was wrong...if it really is wrong. How do I know what you say is right? :oP I was very young when Gunsmoke went off the air so I really don't remember it. I only see the episodes on TVLand. The ones they show are from the later years and the theme song is different than this one. *SIGH*

[scorpio888]

No, IluvBenJoe, I had nothing to do with the rating going down.

I was just letting you know which year this version of the theme is from (sometimes in reruns, they'll have the wrong theme stuck into an episode--- even when I bought some GUNSMOKE videotapes years ago, they had this theme incorrectly inserted into 1966 episodes.) *kisses*

[IluvBenJoe]

Okay scorpio888. I saw the wink and smile you left but wasn't sure if you were teasing or being sarcastic. I apologize if my reply sounded childish. Thanks for taking the time and effort to let me know what year the theme song really was. I will change that in my title. *Hugs back to you* :o)

Hello gerryups, Yes, Dennis starred in McCloud. I used to love watching him. He was so handsome and talented! :o)

Good job! I watched an episode of this with my parents once & found out that it is a really good show.

Well Done Presentation!! Thank you for adding (the late) Dennis Weaver and (the late) Ken Curtis in the video. I enjoy watching "Gunsmoke" at every possible opportunity. A Fat 6!! Maybe one day you could add clips from the two-part episode "Island In The Desert" in the near future ... if possible. So Long!!

[IluvBenJoe]

Hello Green18600. I'm glad you like my video. I would love to add clips but I don't have the right equipment to do it. Maybe someday I will be able to. Thanks for taking time to watch and to leave a message. It's greatly appreciated!! :o)
