Galactic-North Western: theme from "Star Trek" (supposedly the show
was quite frankly conceived as an outer-space variation of "Wagon
Train.")
More seriously, check out the Chuck Wagon and the Wheels medley of
"Ghost Riders in the Sky" and the themes from "Rawhide" and "Have Gun,
Will Travel." (Apparently the band is still around, though they're
now called Chuck "Wagon" Maultsby And His Old Band, having sold off
their original name some years ago). You can stream it or buy it as a
download on their MySpace page.
Best instrumental: theme from "Bonanza." Actually there were lyrics,
but I'm told that they were used only once, probably on the pilot
episode. This I learned from a radio show about theme music -- the
debut of the tremendously long running "Bonanza" was before my
time. I seem to recall the lyrics, which they played, as
generically faux-mythic oatburner stuff, and will further speculate
from memory that the host said they were written before the show was
filmed and, as it turned out, didn't have much to do with it.

Unfortunately idgit, you've been told a lot of things in your
lifetime, BUT ... the problem is we all have to decide ON OUR OWN who
to believe. : ) Obviously with your self important, smarmy nose up in
the air all the time, you border on delusional, and wouldn't know who
to believe if the people you meet came with instructions. : )
Anyhow, forget the "PROBABLY", and just admit that AS USUAL, when it
comes to almost everything, but ESPECIALLY Country Music, you don't
know what you're talking about, but that's never stopped you from
talking down to everyone, with a couple of million words of complete
nonsense. : ) I'm gonna guess you were/are an only child or youngest
child, with a lot of years apart from your next sibling, with older
parents. How'd I do??????
> This I learned from a radio show about theme music<
SEE ABOVE!!!!!!! The only thing you've "learned", is how to TRY to BS
people. Your screen name is fairly accurate, in that there's been very
few posters to this group more absurd than you! You wouldn't know the
truth if it bit you in the ass. Please cite what radio show about
theme music broadcasted such nonsense!
We're waiting! : ) LOL !!!!!!!!
> -- the debut of the tremendously long running "Bonanza" was before my

Apparently so was truth serum and the lie detector! ; ) LOL !!!!!!!!
The BIG problem for you, is it wasn't before the time of a lot of
people who visit this group! : )
�I seem to recall the lyrics, which they played, as

Again, you seem to recall a lot of things, unfortunately for you ,
none of it EVER happened. Can you say D-E-L-U-S-I-O-N-A-
L???????????????

SPECULATE???? : ) LOL !!!!!!!!!!!! Is this Warren Buffett?????? : )
LOL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Seriously, do you have a crystal ball or do you
prefer tea leaves and palm reading? Have you considered a career as a
stock speculator? : ) LOL !!!!!!!!!
I mean PLEASE!!!!!!!!!, FOR THE 1,000,000th time, you're either
delusional, have a very faulty memory, are a pathological liar, or
ALL OF THE ABOVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ABSURD indeed! : )
