Talk about nostalgia! I used to love this show when I was a lad. The girl was known as 'Peggy Bailey, Sweet Voice of the West',and there was 'Sgt.Ted of the Mounties, who later became famous as a musical theatre star, Edmund Hockridge. MGM,I too remember 'The Little Red Caboose behind the train', also 'Hobo Bill's Last Ride, and 'Strawberry Roan'. I loved those storytelling songs. They were usually performed towards the end of the show before a rousing finale.
Bill Campbell used to comment 'Mighty Fine' after every song (a thing lampooned by Tommy Handley in his show) and there were frequent instructions to 'Pass around the Applejack'. I didn't know there was a cd of it. Thanks for the link Guest Eddie, I'll get one right away.
