Ghost Riders in the Sky by Kazoo Hero

In 1926, a Native American told a 12-year-old Arizona boy that when a soul leaves its physical body, it becomes a spirit in the sky. When young Stan Jones shared this with a friend, the boys looked up in awe as they imagined each cloud taking on the shape of a ghost.

Twenty-two years later, his boyhood memory inspired Stan to compose “Ghost Riders in the Sky.” It’s about a cowboy who encounters spirits herding cattle in the sky. A specter warns him to change his ways to avoid forever “trying to catch the Devil’s herd across these endless skies".

If you like my version of Stan’s timeless song, please share it with your friends.

So, here’s “Ghost Riders in the Sky.”
