dun dun-dun-dun dun-dun-dun dun-dun-dun BONANZAAAA!!

The theme from the TV show Bonanza (1959-1973) sung by Ben Cartright himself, Lorne Greene, on 45rpm. [YouTube: hear this.] Most people don't know the themesong had words and was performed by the cast in one episode, plus later the cast put out a whole album which includes a squaredance mix of the song.

The above single was released in 1964 and the themesong is actually the b-side; the A-side was another Western ditty called "Ringo" (which closely resembles Jimmy Dean's "Big John") and -- Greene being Canadian -- was also available in French.
