WAY OUT THERE - Roy Rogers & The Sons Of The Pioneers (3/1/47) Saturday Night Roundup rehearsal Bob Nolan spent a few years riding the rails and wandering around the country before joining with Roy Rogers and Tim Spencer to form The Pioneer Trio, which grew into The Sons Of The Pioneers. The first song Bob wrote, "Way Out There," was inspired by his roving days. When The Pioneer Trio auditioned at KFWB it was their singing and yodeling on this song that got them hired by the radio station. In 1946 the Pioneers performed it in Roy's film Song Of Arizona. Roy teams here with Bob and Tim along with the rest of the Pioneers (Lloyd Perryman, Hugh and Karl Farr, and Pat Brady) on this great Pioneer song.
Hope this helps....and is the right song!!! best wishes, Yvonne
