Theme music, song[edit]

Almost five years ago, a numbered editor made three small edits to this article—thanks be, his/her only 'contribution.' The edits were original research—a good educated guess, but nothetheless OR. The information involved is the identity of the composer/performer of the show's theme song. He's listed @ IMDb as "William M. Backer." This name is the same, including middle initial, as the birth name of noted advertising executive, Bill Backer. Mr. Backer was also a songwriter and lyricist, who gifted the world with "I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing (In Perfect Harmony)." His ASCAP rap sheet is less than forty compositions: it doesn't include anything including "Tombstone," or "Whistle Me Back..." Three composers with ASCAP affiliation and one from BMI do have protected listings connected to "Tombstone Territory." None of them have Wikipedia articles. Billie Rae Fingers and Bruce Fingers jointly have 10,000 listings @ ASCAP. They cooperated on the title "Tombstone Territory," with someone named "Jacob Shea" from BMI (More on him shortly). The Fingers brothers have all the hallmarks of very busy, unsung players in commercial/entertainment music. They have no IMDb entry. Melvyn Lenard (Gordon), who has 'only' 900 credits with ASCAP, wrote "Tombstone Territory Cues." He does have an IMDb article, and it shows him writing cues to other television shows in the fifties, including Westerns. Jacob Shea has 2500 listings with BMI and a crosscheck shows that he is the person who has an IMDb listing. However, he could not have written anything connected with the show from this article, as his earliest IMDb entry is 2004. The upshot of all this is that there is no way to use either the ASCAP or BMI websites to verify that William M. Backman is Bill Backman. And the Library of Congress doesn't have any copyrights before 1977 (? or close) available on its website. Ergo, there's no way to know which Backman wrote the song.

Dates[edit]

What I found endlessly annoying about the show is that at the start and sometimes later in the shows, we are given seemingly random dates through the 1880's, when the show is entirely fiction.(185.239.56.135 (talk) 07:22, 17 October 2020 (UTC))[reply]
