Gary,

I know you didn't ask and you probably already know how good the original Sons of the Pioneers were but if not I would recomend a recording of remasters from 1935-38. The band is Len Slye (Roy Rogers)Bob Nolan, Hugh and Carl Farr, and Tim Spencer. This was before Roy became King of the Cowboys, Their harmony yodels made anything else of the day sound bland. Especially on "Way Out There". The Farr brothers are so good you would swear it was Django Reinhardt (sp?) and Stephan Grappelli (sp?)
