The finest version of Utah Trail that I ever heard was by the Sons of the Pioneers, (1964) on the RCA Victor Album titled "Trail Dust." The trio of Lloyd Perryman, Dale Warren and Tommy Doss recorded this album at RCA Victor's "Music Center of the World" in Los Angeles in August, 1964. The title "Trail Dust" comes from the theme of the album; every song has the word "trail" in it. Some of the other songs on this, possibly the finest album the Pioneers ever recorded, are:
Autumn of the Trail; Trail Dust; There's a Long, Long Trail; the Oregon Trail; We'll Rest at the End of the Trail; Silent Trails; Down the Trail to San Antoinio; etc.
This album is not available, as far as I know, unless you can find it from a collector or someone selling a personal copy on line. I have 2 copies of this album but wouldn't part with one for anything. It's worth gold if you love this song or the Sons of the Pioneers. I like Riders in the Sky, but they just ain't the Sons of the Pioneers.
