Success has many fathers. One tale of the origin of the song puts it in Arizona, and written by a Forest Ranger. Eckhart's Stampede Mesa in Texas Scapes puts the origin at the same place with a nester spooking the herd when the trail boss would not let him cut the herd for his milk cow. They say that Palo Duro Canyon still echoes the screams of the horses that Ranald MacKenzie had shot to force the Comanches onto the reservation. I spent some time at the present lake in Crosby county where the stampedes occurred. One windy night, I camped alone there. I dreamed of a cow big on the shoulders and tapering to both ends. I walked in daylight over much of that area. Not much of a dream, but having spent time around cows, I knew it was not the usual cow.
I vaguely recall the story about the milk cow, but never the one attributing the story to Arizona. Looking into it just now, the inspiration for the Stan Jones song came from an Apache legend he heard when he was 12 years old in 1926. Lon Schuyler beat him to the draw in 1902 for the story itself, but it's fascinated how this same story is imbedded in Apache lore hundreds of miles from the spot in Texas. Obviously, the story has deep roots. Thanks ARailway! For further info about the song: web.archive.org/web/20170224140737/www.westernmusic.org/stan-jones
I have seen a photograph of an ancient cave painting (in France, I think) which shows an aurochs (extinct bovine) withyhe body shape you describe. Dreams are strange things!
I heard that this story actually might be a passdown of the wild hunt. The Wildhunt was a legendary event in Germanic/Scandinavian mythology in which the Aesier (Odin and Thor and so on.) went riding on their horses, through the sky to hunt down the living to take them down to the under world. The story of ghost riders in the sky, probably came from the earliest Dutch/German/English and Scandinavian settlers. And then was pass down and slightly, changed into the version we have now.
I have immersed in countless versions of this epic tune, but one of my current favorites is from a guy I had never heard of until recently: Kenny Paul. The electric gutarwork is subtle but haunting, especially toward the end. This one, in my opinion expands on the dark atmospere of the classic version from Johnny Cash, with a traditional bluegrass undercurrent.

This is. Story repeated many time across many generations upon generations , it was crazy story as soon as the mesa started having siting gs of the shining ones the fallen Angele and they see the lightning that's they ship REAL TALK
At last a Story about the Legend of Ghost Riders in the Sky in Texas Mesa. It was very sad, but very interesting. I heard about the legend in my Book about Stan Jones in the 192Os in Arizona, 😊❤🐴🐎🐴🎶🎵🎶
Mesas are covered by Basalt, an Iron rich stone, where lightnings frequent strikes. Cattle or sheep flocks are often killed by lightning. One ancestor of mine lost his whole sheep.
This would make for a fantastic movie, provided it could be made without involving the comic character and instead focus on making the story as realistic and historically accurate as possible.
Sir, thank you for this very interesting and informative presentation. Regarding the Massa. I have always wondered about the inspiration behind the sing Ghost riders in the sky. After hearing this legend, it makes more sense.
The legend began in the Netherlands and Belgium. People told stories of the Buckriders (Dutch: Bokkenrijders). Spirits of the damned who ride on the backs of large, fire breathing, black billy goats across the night sky searching for souls to steal for Satan, their master.
The story actually was the inspiration for the original Ghost Rider character published by Magazine Enterprises between 1949-1955. Stan Lee more or less stole the character in 1967 and changed his name to Carter Slade.
Yes, maybe the old Wild Hunt myth helped to create the story of Stampede Mesa. There are also stories of historic battles being fought again in visions over the battlefields.
The actual history is far more interesting and rich. The lineage of this song starts in Ireland with "Johny I hardly knew ye" an old war protest song, you can find Joan Baez excellent version here on utube, it crossed the Atlantic and became "When Johny comes marching home again", Dolly partons version is a great reference. This was a favourite whistled by Stan Jones as he checked his weather stations while working as a park ranger, clouds rolling in. He went on to write Ghost Riders for the sons of the Pioneers, a television band of cowboys who at the time were working as caddies at a golf club.
From what i heard was that all the Men that were with Sawyer on that drive all died within a year either killed in saloons or on other drives Sawyer shot himself on stampede mesa after a year it happened according to the story Sawyer kept having nightmares since

let him cut the herd for his milk cow.
They say that Palo Duro Canyon still echoes the

Can you draw a picture of the big- shouldered, tapering dream cow?

Ooh my gosh! This is where the Ghost Riders in The Sky song came from! I LOVE it!
My dad used to play this song on guitar when I was a little boy. The first version I ever heard was by Lorne Greene.
finally a story about the legend of the ghost rider and not some sjeleton on a badass hellcycle
I wish Hollywood could make a good movie about this mesa
on it

Well done, I love history well told. Thank you.
I love ghost stories and legends, and this is the first time I've heard of this one. Now I must listen to the song.
I have immersed in countless versions of this epic tune, but one of my current favorites is from a guy I had never heard of until recently: Kenny Paul. The electric gutarwork is subtle but haunting, especially toward the end. This one, in my opinion expands on the dark atmospere of the classic version from Johnny Cash, with a traditional bluegrass undercurrent.

My favorite version, but there are many good versions out there.

I always was wondering where this gripping song came from. Now this is cleared up, and yeah, thanx a lot. Very interesting. 💯🌟👻👻👍👍
This is. Story repeated many time across many generations upon generations , it was crazy story as soon as the mesa started having siting gs of the shining ones the fallen Angele and they see the lightning that's they ship REAL TALK
I love listening to The writer, Stan Jones, Vaughan Monroe, Burl Ives versions of this great song. And most only know it as a Johnny Cash tune.
At last a Story about the Legend of Ghost Riders in the Sky in Texas Mesa. It was very sad, but very interesting. I heard about the legend in my Book about Stan Jones in the 192Os in Arizona, 😊❤🐴🐎🐴🎶🎵🎶
Sad, indeed, but exciting too.

From Spain: we love these legends. They're part of the American culture. Cheers.
Indeed this story does sound like a story straight out of Revelation .
This would make for a fantastic movie, provided it could be made without involving the comic character and instead focus on making the story as realistic and historically accurate as possible.

Good song
This is badass. Just earned a sub from me 👍🏽
Note that this legend was indeed responsible for the ghost rider character Carter slade who worked as the devil bounty hunter for 100 and 50 years
The story actually was the inspiration for the original Ghost Rider character published by Magazine Enterprises between 1949-1955. Stan Lee more or less stole the character in 1967 and changed his name to Carter Slade.
I was referring to the event in the ghost rider 1 movie
That’s so cool! I want to go there!
Thanks for tale very fun
I love the song. ❤️
My favorite renditions of this song are by Johnny Cash and The Sons of the Pioneers.
You forgot the accapella version by Geoffrey castalucci.
My uncle Stan Wrote this song.
Very cool

Mooie schilderijen van cowboys
Huh, must be some truth to the legend? Thanks

Sawyer shot himself on stampede mesa after a year it happened according to the story Sawyer kept having nightmares since
Good job

I have seen some commentators liken the story to the pagan European myth of the Wild Hunt.
