From the back cover: Heard on this splendidly recorded disc, which, by the way, is pressed on the finest vinyl, is a group of varied voices. Bob Eberly, who sings the title song of Westward Ho The Wagons, has his own radio show on the ABC Network, has been starred on many coast-to-coast television programs, has recently made his own long-playing record for Grand Awards Records, and is fondly remembered by so many lovers of popular music for the many fine recordings he made when a member of Jimmy Dorsey's orchestra.

Loren Becker and Jimmy Blaine have both been seen and heard frequently on the radio and television; the former strictly as a singer; the latter also as one of the country's topflight announcers. Loren was the winner of the first Arthur Godfrey Talent Scouts contest, was featured on the Robert Q. Lewis show, and has been heard on dozens of recordings. Jimmy, of course, has been seen and heard so many times on the Jackie Gleason show and many other outstanding television programs.

Elton Britt is one of the all-time singing stars of cowboy and Western folk music. A native of Arkansas, he was discovered by a Hollywood radio station executive and immediately hustled off to the film capital where he was an immediate sensation on the airwaves and later in the movies. He has been heard on countless radio programs, including his own coast-to-coast show that ran for a good number of years.

Rosalie Allen is one of the best-known of all girl Western singers, and has also made a national reputation as one of the world's outstanding yodelers. More recently she has confined her activities to the East Coast, where she has spread the gospel of Western music via her own radio programs, even converting a large segment of New York City's urban populace to her ways of thinking and singing.

Supporting these singers on many of these performances is an orchestra conducted by Enoch Light, the talented batoneer who is so well versed in all forms of music and who has made a special study of musical recording techniques that has won him wide acclaim in the field.

These, then, are the songs from Westward Ho The Wagons, plus a galaxy of other Western melodies, performed with zest and enthusiasm and much musical know-how by these great artists especially for this brand new Waldorf Music King-Size Record, another in a series of brilliant hi-fi-wax-works.
