Peggy Lee - Riders In The Sky

Peggy Lee sings "Riders In The Sky (A Cowboy Legend)'". A wonderful rendition of one of my favourite tunes. A very classy lady.

My earliest post by many years, this was released as a single in 1949.

Top musicianship and storytelling from start to finish; everything about this truly evokes the West.  My personal favorite version of tihs tune, dreamy and eerie.

Thanks for sharing.

@SirBasildeBrush My parents had a small recording company named Gravodisc here in São Paulo (Brazil) before they got married in 1951 and I was born listening to piles of 78 rpm's of various artists some Brazilian classics but mostly Americans (Dinning Sisters, Peggy Lee, Bing Crosby, Les Paul, etc.) and Riders in the sky were one of my favourites due to soft voice of Peggy Lee and the back supporting instrument keeping up the rythm (was it an Ukelele?). I was fascinated with it posted here.

@rodolpho979 Thanks for the interesting comment. Could be a Ukelele, or you could get much the same effect by soft finger strumming a spanish guitar.
