Mr. Walser's rendition of the great songwriter Stan Jones' "Cowpoke" is outstanding. I know at least one other Mudcatter that would agree. His cover of "Big Ball's In Cowtown" and a song he wrote "Rolling Stone From Texas" that he sang both in the movie 'Secondhand Lions' emphasized how a music score/soundtrack can dramatically enhance a film.

I almost submitted a post here yesterday asking if anyone had heard about his health because I sent an e-mail recently to his son, who managed his website, but had not received a reply.

Don Walser was a fine yodeler and the three songs mentioned above are my favorite Walser songs.
