The only one that comes to mind is Gene Autry. He wrote Jingle Bells, but if it's him that you're referring to, I don't know what the second song would be. /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif

Now I can't say for sure, but I certainly thought that Jingle Bells pre-dated Gene Autry; didn't think he wrote it. I know that he recorded Rudolph the Rednosed Reindeer on the back of a record they expected to do well (and I've forgotten what that song was but Rudolph became famous /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif.

"...but I certainly thought that Jingle Bells pre-dated Gene Autry; didn't think he wrote it. I know that he recorded Rudolph the Rednosed Reindeer on the back of a record they expected to do well..."

Yep, Gene recorded "Rudolph the Rednosed Reindeer" in 1945.

The "Heigh-Ho, Silver" was from the early '50's TV series "Lone Ranger", but it wasn't Clayton Moore who said it in the intro. Now, there's a real trivia question...who was that announcer? Paul Frees??

How about " I've got spurs that Jingle Jangle Jingle, As I go rideing merrily along" ?? ok ok I've had way too much coffee. /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif Dave

'Lone Ranger' announcer dead at 86
WEST PALM BEACH, Florida -- The voice that summoned millions of children to the radio to hear the exploits of "The Lone Ranger" has fallen silent.

Bob Hite Sr. died Friday, two days after slipping into a coma. He was 86.

Hite began his announcing career in the 1930s at a Detroit radio station, where he alerted youngsters that "The Lone Ranger," "The Green Hornet" and other shows were about to begin. He also introduced a young Frank Sinatra when the singer debuted with the Tommy Dorsey band.

When those children grew up, says veteran news anchor Walter Cronkite, who often sailed with Hite, they never forgot that voice. When other boaters would pass, Cronkite says, they would yell out, "Give us the ranger, give us the ranger!"

Hite's response, delivered in a booming baritone? "From out of the past came the thundering hoof beats of the great horse Silver!"

You're right. I forgot that it was Rudolph and not Jingle Bells that Gene Autry wrote. /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif

Dave, any time I approach a hole with a water hazard I always wash my golf ball first; don't want it to leave the tee thirsty. /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif
