Hollywood's first singing cowboy, Ken Maynard starred in scores of Western films and also worked as a circus rider and wild west showman. SINGS THE LONE STAR TRAIL collects the reedy-voiced actor's entire recorded output (eight songs from his sole recording session as well as five previously unreleased tracks) in one place. In typical thorough Bear Family Records fashion, the package includes an 80-page booklet featuring an extensive biography and dozens of rare photos.
