Comments
This double LP contains all brand performances of old Western songs and is a recorded adaptation of the LIFE magazine series "How The West Was Won". It unfolds in word and song the great story of man's conquest of the West. The songs were carefully selected and then artists, including Bing Crosby and Rosemary Clooney, were chosen to record the songs in a modern context. The album came with a 22 page booklet. Some bands on the record have two performances that aren't medleys and are often performed by two different artists.
