Friday Tunage - Songs of the West

[Ben Lamb]

The sun is sinking in the west
The cattle go down to the stream
The redwing settles in her nest
It's time for a cowboy to dream.

My Uncle Elt was a yodeler and this song was one he could do better than Eddy Arnold. Here is the D-wight version.

That lonesome coyote's howling on the prairie
and that big Wyoming moon is shinning down

Dave Stamey "It's the West"

Dave Stamey reminds me of a western song writer that I met in northern Montana, while working there. I cannot remember his name for the life of me and his cassettes are long gone. He lived west of Havre, if I remember correctly. Maybe some of you Montana guys can refresh my memory. He was good and a for-real cowboy, too.
