All Star Western Theatre Old Time Radio Program All Star Western Theatre Combined Set (CDs 1 and 2)
All Star Western Theatre was broadcast from Hollywood in the late 1940s. A glossy, star-studded variety show, its stated purpose was to evoke the Old West by bringing you the music, stories and the spirit of the great open spaces. The show starred Foy Willing and the Riders of the Purple Sage, and presented stories that incorporated the shows regular performers and a weekly guest starusually a luminary from western movies and music--including Smiley Burnette, Tex Ritter, Johnny Mack Brown, Jackie Cooper, Eddy Arnold, Preston Foster, Hank Williams and the glamour girl of the west, Dale Evans. Each show was richly interspersed with musical performances by the guests and the Riders of the Purple Sage, who were famous for many of their recordings, including Red River Valley, Hang your Head in Shame, Rose of San Antone, and Cool, Cool Water. The stories are consistently well-presented and charming. The music is typical of what used to be called Cowboy music, with its characteristic close harmony, acoustic guitar and harmonica, a close relative of the old Child Ballads, both in structure and theme. Whether or not youre a fan of the genre, youll find the renditions of these songs excellent and compelling. This collection includes 96 tracks of approximately ½ hour shows broadcast from July, 1946 through August, 1948.
