Good song, terrible movie.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: Ghost Riders
Listening closely you hear the ripped off remnants of (“Like a hurricane” Neil Young) and the harmonic twang from “Cortez the Killer” in the beginning of this version of Ghost Riders In The Storm. Burl Ives Sing’s this song best because …he used his voice to create the effects ……….. that we now take for granted for lead vocals from digital effects.
