Picture of Davy Crockett CD

King of the Wild Frontier

Who better than Riders In The Sky to sing the praises of Davy Crockett, the scout, militiaman, Congressman and hero of the Alamo whose life became an American legend? The singin'est Cowboys this side of the Rio Grande - Ranger Doug, Too Slim, Woody Paul and Joey the Cowpolka King - offer folk songs, neo-folk songs, Disney themes and their own tunes to paint a picture of Davy Crockett that's neither totally real nor totally false, but filled with the vivid stories of the frontiersman who will live forever in the collective American imagination.

Read the liner notes to learn about Davy Crockett, both the man and the legend, and to get a glimpse into the making of the album.
