* HarsherInHindsight: Their 1974 single "Whatever Happened to Randolph Scott," contains the line "Tex Ritter's gone," which, when recorded in May 1973, was meant to bemoan the disappearance of wholesome, G-rated silver screen cowboys (such as Ritter) from the big screen and taking a jab at those who preferred R- or X-rated movies while scoffing at movies wherein the good guys always won and upheld family values. The song was released as a single Dec. 26, 1973, exactly one week before Ritter's death, and hit its peak in popularity in late February 1974 as movie-goers and fans of Ritter's work were still mourning his passing ... giving the line "Tex Ritter's gone" an unintended current, relevant meaning.
