Definitely Rawhide.

I liked "Burnin' Bridges" from Kelly's Heroes. Not a Western but one of my favorite War Movies.

As a kid I watched Rat Patrol which also had a good intro.

Bonanza is definitely one of those that you knew instantly.

Bonanza...

Gilligan's Island...as a kid. With being laid up I was reading...the cast of GI did NOT get residuals, and the show was only on for 3 yrs...amazing. Course that was probably with most of those types of shows back then.

Hard to beat "Rawhide"

Frankie Laine does it justice.

The music from The Rifleman was always very dramatic and suspenseful.

Oops, I almost forgot Maverick. It is right up there. "Natchez to New Orleans.....livin' on Jacks and Queens.....".

In no particular order Rawhide, Maverick and The Restless Gun.

That actually was a pretty cool song...and a bit of a suggestive opening montage that I, as a young lad, got a bit of a goose from.

Johnny Yuma, was a rebel.
He rode, through the West.

Don't know the rest of it.

Followed closely by:

All but one man died . . .
There at Bitter Creek.
And they say he ran away.
BRANDED! Scorned as the one who ran.
How can you live when you're branded
and you know you're a man?

That would be my #1 under the topic of Favorite Movie Western Theme Song . . .

I am actually frightened by the fact that this song popped into my head...
