Here's Smiley Burnette singing "Ever Lovin' Marshall" with Tommy Duncan accompanying on the vocals. This is from the Durango Kid movie, "South of Death Valley". The rope trick is pretty cute. :) Enjoy!

  • Smiley Burnette was signed to co-star in the Durango films in 1946 after Dub "Cannonball" Taylor left to go to Monogram as Jimmy Wakely's sidekick. Although Starrett admitted that at first, Smiley could be a little aggressive as a co-worker, his comedy and songs gave the series an added boost at the boxoffice.

  • @TheFrontrowkid Smiley apparently went up to Durango and basically said he's gonna be a shot in the arm of his failing movies. And this started a rocky relationship between the two. But from what I've read, it seemed to get better as time went on. Smiley's apparently the Gene Kelly of B-Westerns.

    Ring Eye is also not as playful he seems.

  • Your grandpa is also shown In Saturday Night in San Antone. I uploaded that video to Youtube as well. I hope you enjoy. Any stories you'd like to share, I'm sure everyone reading would love to read. :)

  • My grandpa Glynn on doghouse bass

  • @5thcorps Did he ever talk about what it was like to work with Smiley, Tommy Duncan, or Charles Starrett? Any good stories for us?

  • While Smiley Burnette may have started out on the wrong foot with Charles Starrett, there is no denying that his contribution to the series was worthy of his co-star billing. On the film credits, he is given a separate film credit from the rest of the cast. He also was billed as "the West's No. 1 comic." In between and after his film career, he continued to make numerous personal appearances across the country, visiting radio stations and opening shopping malls. "Come out and see Ole Frog."

  • Stop asking such questions.

  • @HOGEFAN He speaks very highly of Smiley and Starrett. Tommy wasn't just his brother but also his idol.

  • This was in a Durango Kid movie;, and I have it someplace.
