    I was raised with Marty Robbins music, Burel Mulkey was a family friend and idol when I was a kid and this song reminded me of Burel, who was a world champion and all around bronc rider in the 30's.. He set the NEW STYLE along with his running mate Nick Knight on how to dress up a bronc ride, toes out and raking the neck.. The norm was to dress em up by fanning with your hat...Burel and Nick changed all that.. RIP Champ.
    Most pictures are from my grandparents and some off the internet..
    This is my tribute to the ONE and ONLY Burel Mulkey
    Saddle Bronc Rider • Inducted 2011
    Known among his peers as the “Shetland Stud” or the “Banty Cowboy,” Burel Mulkey had strength that belied his 5-6, 165 pound stature, allowing him to excel at a time when saddle bronc riders had to stay on for 12 seconds (10 indoors) to earn a score.
    Mulkey was one of the sport’s most colorful performers in the 1930s with his love of pranks, his trademark black satin shirt and his penchant for going all out on every ride. He won the 1937 world saddle bronc riding championship and was do dominant the following year that he not only repeated his saddle bronc riding triumph, but was named world all-around champion because his earnings surpassed all of the mutli-event contestants.
    He had wins at virtually every major venue of the port in his day, including Madison Square Garden; Fort Worth, Texas; Reno, Nev,; Salinas, Calif.; Los Angeles and that saddle bronc riding Mecca, Deadwood, S.D.
    Mulkey was one of the 61 cowboys who stepped forward at Boston Garden in 1936 to sign the petition demanding fair treatment that led to creation of the Turtles’ Cowboy Association, precursor to the current-day Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association. He is the seventh of those Founding Fathers to achieve induction into the ProRodeo Hall of Fame based on their achievements in the arena.
    World Championships: 3 (Saddle Bronc 1937-38; All Around 1938)
    Born May 25, 1904 in Clyde, Idaho
    Died November 20, 1982 in Lake Isabella, Calif

    There was a hush in the crowd and they knew
    This would be Billy's last ride
    The saddle horn crushed Billy's chest when they fell
    And under Old Red Billy died
    Old Red lay still, no more would he move
    The cowboys that seen it could tell
    In tryin' to throw Billy off of his back
    Old Red broke his neck when he fell
    Got a bit choked up at hearing this... :(

    I've often wondered when showing emotion in music went out of fashion. Music today is sterile, barren of feeling and if anyone tries to put it in the music is ridiculed and described as corny or maudlin. All genres of music are like this. If you are over a certain age your musical taste is derided and mocked. Full of sound and fury signifying nothing.

    • @Hy-Brasil
      @Hy-Brasil 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      first thing ..... no one wants to feel anything but happiness *there is a good psychological reason for that, caused by a dopamine addiction but that's another subject for another time*
      it basically results in people wanting to be numb to everything except happiness or anger.
      nothing else in between.
      and it's not just the music that's dull and sterile. our tv shows, movies and books have the same disease.
