Western Connection (Cowboys and Indians)

What's the Connection? became a lot about themes in song titles. Was this word or another used in the title of the song. That isn't that difficult to do, if you have all your songs cataloged by album and artist. But it's harder to get a theme like Westerns done, because you have multiple things going on at the same time. Watching old westerns to me means time with my dad going to the movies and seeing The Magnificent Seven, Little Big Man, Red Sun, etc. Usually Cowboys and Indians. Back then there was no PC term. I was a proud member of the Y-Indian Guides as a kid in the probably made up tribe name: the Wa-Kay tribe. But we took it seriously. So here are some of my favorite songs reminding me of Westerns. Click the cover as usual. And if you have any favorite songs of yours that remind you of Westerns, make sure to leave a comment
