This song comes from Tom Russell's 2011 release, 'Mesabi', available through Tom's website - http://www.tomrussell.com - and the usual record outlets. Sterling Hayden (March 26, 1916 -- May 23, 1986) was an American actor and author. For most of his career as a leading man, he specialized in westerns and film noir, such as Johnny Guitar, The Asphalt Jungle and The Killing. Later on he became noted as a character actor for such roles as Gen. Jack D. Ripper in Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (1964). He also played the Irish policeman, Captain McCluskey, in Francis Ford Coppola's The Godfather in 1972, and the novelist Roger Wade in 1973's The Long Goodbye. The quote at the beginning of the video comes from Hayden's autobiography, "Wanderer" (1963).

  • This is very moving...leads away me into reveries about Hayden...and Hollywood... and life. For sure Sterling did not lead an ordinary life. Nor does Tom Russell. Nor do you Doug Lang. Head and shoulders above the crowd. Head and shoulders.

  • As good as it get on YouTube. Many thanks for a superb video!
