The Last Dogie:Old Time Country, Cowboy & Western Songs

A Country musical extravaganza from Educational Films, featuring "Git Along Little Dogie", "The Old Chisum Trail", "Red River Valley" and "Home On The Range". If the main singer in this short looks like an unlikely cowboy, maybe it's because it's James Melton, later tenor with the Metropolitan Opera.

Who are all the singers? They are great. Never hear Chisolm Trail sung to that tune. Who's the guy with the beard playing guitar? He looks a tad like Gabby Hayes, but I know it's not.

The guy who comes in in the middle & sings Red River Valley is James Melton. He wasn't exactly a country music artist. He was a popular radio tenor, then became a singer with the Metropolitan Opera in the 40s.

GREAT MUSIC. REAL COUNTRY MUSIC, THE TRUE WAY COUNTRY WAS MEANT TO BE SUNG AND HEARD. REMINDS ME OF THE OLD KITCHEN PARTIES WE USED TO HAVE WHEN I WAS A LITTLE BOY. EVERYONE WOULD BRING A GUITAR, MANDOLIN OR FIDDLE AND A DRINK OR TWO AND SING THE REAL SONGS WITH MEANING AND HEART. MUSIC DOES NOT HAVE THAT TODAY. THE SONGS IN THIS VIDEO HAVE BEEN SUNG AND REMEMBERED AND WILL BE SUNG YEARS AFTER OUR TIME. TP PLAY COUNTRY YOU DO NOT NEED AN ELECTRIC ANYTHING!!. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR POSTING.
