Never heard of this show till today! Love those old shows great entertainment 👌
I heartily concur ! I too had never heard of this TV Western till coming across it here at RUclips. I looked it up online & found out it ran in syndication for two seasons (1959-1961). Always liked Scott Brady & his brother, fellow actor Lawrence Tierney.
A lot of these movies are just great. I do like most of them. Brings back memories.
Much Gratitude for sharing!
Scott Brady starred many and many westerns. Johnny Guitar!
And movie Mohawk.
I remember this show. I remember my mom saying " does he have his shirt off again? "
Anybody notice this is a Western scored with "Peter Gunn"-style "crime jazz" music?
Haha! And you have defined a genre or Jazz - "Crime Jazz"! Oh - too late. Someone already did. But you nailed it for 'Old West Crime Jazz'!! :)
***** Apparently, the idea was that this was supposed to be a detective show in western clothes, rather than a conventional western. Composer Gerald Fried suggested using private-eye jazz, and Revue's musical supervisor Stanley Wilson and series producer Nat Holt went along with the idea.
(Revue and its parent company MCA later bought Universal Pictures, and Revue became Universal Television.)
Jeff Missinne nice try by them, but no cigar
thanks for the info,though!
+Jeff Missinne its the aria the show came out maybe?
I certainly noticed it ! Very unusual for a TV Western ! Though I recenlty watched an episode of "Shotgun Slade" (which aired the same two seasons as "The Deputy") here at RUclips & it had the same type of jazzy score with the liberal use of an electric guitar. They were both produced by the same studio (Revue) but had different musical directors.
Shotgun Slade is tooo cool
Barry Atwater is main guest star. Many years later he played the vampire in the tvfilm The Night Stalker on ABC!
Sue Anne Langdon,an attractive actress is also in this.
She was no Hope Emerson, but Ms Langdon was indeed quite a lovely lady ! Hubba hubba !
Slade was usually the big ladies' man. He carried more big guns than just the one in the opening credits. He really knew how to pull all the triggers with the gals. Surprised he didn't take it to at least third base with that hot little number played by Sue Ann Langdon. Vavavaroom ! Also loved the 1950's style 77-Sunset Strip jazz music applied in a 19th century western town setting.
The TV Western "The Deputy" (which ran for those same two seasons: '59-'61) also had a jazzy soundtrack that made liberal use of the electric guitar. I looked up the background of those two programs online & found out the same studio (Revue) produced both shows. So the producers obviously shared the same person responsible for the music.
@@jubalcalif9100 Good observation. Check out The Tall Man, another goofy series and, as I recall, one that used jazzy electric guitar twangs in the theme, at least. That series disappointed me. Most of the talent and plots were mediocre. It'd be interesting to see if Tall Man was in that same production company portfolio.
That Slade.....He Da Man!
Geeze, have wardrobe make the crippled gunslinger's right sleeve extra long. It would at least give the illusion that there wasn't a hand under that leather cup.
These TV westerns were all the rage around 1960. I don't know why. I remember an image of SGSlade walking down the exterior stairs on a boarding house or some place. That image has stuck witgh me for miore than 50 years. Gonna look for it.
I don't recall claiming the phrase "crime jazz" as original; I quoted it because it's already a recognizable term. But I have to give you the credit for "old west crime jazz," perfect!
Jeff Missinne I didn't know you DIDN'T invent the phrase until I was in the middle of my post and then went to Wiki! I'll accept the credit for "Old West Crime Jazz"! Thx!
Like I said, I can't take credit for what isn't mine, but you deserve the credit for yours.
Jeff Missinne "DIDN'T' - no invention on your part! :)
I knew that was what you meant. Thanks and all best.
Slade is a cheeky one!
you're right jeff,it is!
Good show but what was his shotgun loaded with rock salt, lol shot that guy point blank range and I'm thinking DAMNNNNN... dude is ghost.... Then it show him holding his hand lol ... I love it...
No. No more pretending for that one.
Seems like mort ought to have less fingers left after getting his hand shot off with a shotgun at close range. Lucky guy.
That boarding house with the side staircase reminded me of Docs office on Gun smoke. But Doc's had a window I believe.
Me too
90% of all these movies are very-good.....(that is my judgement).............
Music is bizarre for a western.just doesn't fit.sounds like something from Peter gunn or a B-Movie noir film.
I heartily concur. Very strange indeed !
The actror playing Billy the gunslinger boy; looks like he is at least 40 years old
.
Not a very authentic fight scene.
The are cartoon like sound effects in that fight scene.
Good show but the music has to go
My sentiments exactly. No way does it fit the format of a TV Western !
