Riders In The Sky Present: Davy Crockett, King Of The Wild Frontier is a studio recording released by the Western band Riders in the Sky on August 3, 2004. It is available as a single CD.
Riders In The Sky offers a tribute to Davy Crockett, the scout, militiaman, Congressman, and hero of the Alamo whose life became an American legend. This album is a combination of folk songs, neo-folk songs, Disney themes, and their own tunes to paint a picture of Davy Crockett that's neither totally real nor totally false, but filled with the vivid stories of the frontiersman who is part of the collective American imagination.
