What are the names of some of the most well known desperados from the wild west?

Answer 1

It must be Johnny Cash. He could sing the best country-western I know. Also, if were talking about strictly western songs, he recorded the concept album "Sings the Ballads of the True West" which has some great songs. He had a very different voice then most country singers and it was for the better. From his early days at Sun with songs like "Walk the Line" and "Cry, Cry, Cry," to his time with Columbia with "Ring of Fire" down to his last days with "The Man Comes Around" and "Hurt". So my final answer is Johnny Cash.

Some famous singers of western movie soundtracks are Tex Ritter, Frankie Laine, Tennesee Ernie Ford, Roy Rogers, Sons of the Pioneers, and Gene Autrey.
