western disco songs?

**mixtape** · December 13th, 2003, 10:12 PM

I'm looking for any country western disco songs like Boots Clements - Ghostriders in the sky (I just recently bought on a disconet)

Dolly Parton - Baby I'm Burnin'

**Bernie** · December 13th, 2003, 10:23 PM

Also Joe Thomas - Two Doors Down was written by Dolly Parton!

A couple from Salsoul -
Gaz's 'The Good, The Bad & The Ugly'(!) and
Robin Hooker Band's deservedly rare 'Your Cheatin' Heart'/'Stand By Your Man'.

Kellee Patterson's version of 'Jolene' on Shady Brook.

Side 2 of the Leslie O'Hara album "Gipsy Boy" is disco covers of c&w standards, like the whole of the Silver Blue album, you'll get stuff like The Yellow Rose of Texas. The best thing about the Silver Blue is the sleeve, though. The Leslie album is by the people who brought us the fab Evidence lp but don't expect such quality with Leslie, apart from the catchy title track.

Black Light Orchestra did a great medley of Morricone's spaghetti western themes but that's not really country&western.

Have you looked into that Malcom McLaren Buffalo Girls 12", the flip has a no frills handbag/disco country hoedown or what the hell those things are called...

what is the name of the black light orchestra medley? is it once upon a time in the west?

**Bernie** · December 14th, 2003, 09:14 AM

Hot Posse - An American Dream (Medley)

It's called "Morricone (A Man and His Harmonica - Once Upon a Time In the West)" from the lp Once Upon a Time...

Also, Tony Joe White doing "I Get Off On It" on Casablanca; Dolly Parton got a little club play with "My Potential New Boyfriend"; LeAnn Rimes has had a couple of her hits remixed for club, such as "How Do I Live". Debra Michaels also had a club version of this.

Another one: Paula Cole - "Where Have All The Cowboys Gone" (Not really c&w but the title works.)

If you don't mind a bit on the "New Wave" side (fast, around 140 bpm)there is "I wanna be a cowboy" (Profile) by Boys don't cry, I recently heard this song in a cell phone commercial I think.

Dolly Parton's 'I Wanna Fall In Love' is another good example of Country/Western Disco. This was on the same album as 'Baby I'm Burnin'. If I remember correctly I think that there was a 12 inch issued on this one also.

Dolly Parton's "I Wanna Fall in Love" is on the flip-side of the 12", "Baby I'm Burning" (pink vinyl, no less!) - the cover commands, "Dance With Dolly!".

Another couple of examples:

"Best in the West" by Chaka Khan
"Cowboys and Indians" by "M" ("Pop Music")

How about Meco's "Hot in the Saddle," invoking visions of "Bonanza," complete with gunshots, Indians, arrows and the cavalry? I would love to hear Kellee Patterson's version of Jolene.

Meco also covered Morricone's "The Good, The Bad & The Ugly". Believe or not my real western disco is "Flight to Versailles" by Grand Tour :P .

**Rugger57** · August 6th, 2007, 03:54 PM

Let us not forget the Skatt Bros. "Life At The Outpost".

Always one of my favorites.

**FunkyChris** · August 6th, 2007, 04:12 PM

"Hot In The Saddle" by Meco (album "Encounters Of Every Kind) is a western disco song.

**the disco kid** · August 6th, 2007, 06:25 PM

HOT POSSEE "an american dream medley" Moby Dick records, has some rather superb western disco moments in it

the whole Lp is Brilliant, but "Flight ..." is one of my all time favorite instrumental disco songs, absolutely gorgeous!

**thommy2458** · August 6th, 2007, 07:34 PM

This might be a longshot,but doesn't "Sadness In My Eyes"
by the Duncan Sisters have a sweet,melancholy C&W feel
to it? Give it a try!

A bit more pop than country, but definitely country vocalists:

The Ronnie Milsap 12"s of Get it Up and She Loves My Car; and
the underrated Anne Murray Who's Leaving Who 12".
