I still remember when I was a young lad visiting my beautiful grandma, all my uncles and aunties had left home so she was on her own. I visited every Saturday, and we both loved my visits, I was her eldest grandchild & according to everyone, I was her favourite. This one particular Saturday I found some old 78s in a cupboard, they were in the 50s & 78s were the only record you could buy in those days for single records. They were all Frankie’s records. I asked my gran who these records belonged to, and she said your uncle, he had left them when he got married and moved away. The old record payer was above the cupboard so I put one of them on, it happened to be Cool Clear Water. I listened to it and was in awe of his voice and the song. I spent all afternoon playing those records, High Noon, champion the Wonder Horse, and many more, from that day over 60 years ago I've loved this voice and especially his western soundtracks. Those days were good, simple days and I treasured them with my lovely gran.
what a great entertainer,brings back so many happy memories my husband sang all his songs at holiday camps on the stage,we had lots of fun.He is over 80 now still can sing but not on the stage.happy days Barbara..👵👍👵
Interesting that I have such a moved feeling listening to the voice of Frankie Laine. Especially since my initial introduction to both was as the vocalist of the "blazing saddles" theme song.
@dramaqueen5748 Thank you for your comments If you youtube search for 'the cry of the wild goose' there is several frankie laine versions on it, or youtube search frankie laine and it'll be in there somewhere. Good luck. H.floydy
Hi HFloydy, thanks for posting this magnificent song! Can you please tell me the name of the company that issued the record and from which year this beautiful album is?
No this wasn't his best, but he was in his eighties when he recorded it. I asked him once why he didn't record it when he was in his prime. He said, because no one had offered it to him. This was a time when the record companies determined; for the most part, what songs a singer would record.
If you listen to him on the very last note, it's very hard to imagine a guy 85 was singing this ! Most singers don't have the air to hold it more than half this long. Way to go "Old Leather Lungs," as he was nicknamed by many in the business.

I have always loved everything Frankie Laine ever sang. He just couldn't sing badly. The man was truly gifted with a magnificent voice.
yea, and he was like in his 80's when he recorded this
I remember hearing this song many times in the late 1960s.
My late father was a big fan of Frankie Laine. Towards the end of my fathers life I was always playing his songs for him. Rip dad 💖
come here every year for the last 16 since I lost my dad he loved Frankie Lane always singing his songs miss you so much
Another Frankie Laine classic,I could listen to this great artist all the time
Magnificent song and a magnificent artist. R.I.P., Frankie.

Try spelling the song title correctly! Mariah!
Your the SECOND person to get the wind's name WRONG..."LISTEN"......Meriah......Geez
Sorry but Harve Presnell unbeatable
Fair, but he even got some of the words wrong! Thumbs down, Frankie.
