Though Autry wrote or co-wrote many songs, he did not write Riders in the Sky. It was written by Stan Jones (1914-1963), a prolific songwriter, who also penned the theme song for the CHEYENNE television series starring Clint Walker.
@captbijou Most of Gen's movies were filmed at the " Old Tucson Studios" in Tucson Az -- open for tours -- then a 40 minute drive tio Tombstone -- a great trip -- 5 hours from the Inland Empire or San Diego -- come visit
