  • GUNSMOKE TV CAST and DETAILS Premiered
    GUNSMOKE TV CAST AND DETAILS Premiered: September 10, 1955, on CBS Rating: TV-PG Premise: This landmark adult Western centered on Marshal Matt Dillon of Dodge City. John Wayne turned down the lead, suggesting James Arness (who remained for its entire run). Originating on radio (with William Conrad as Dillon), it moved to TV in September 1955. Its popularity spawned a number of copycats, but none would enjoy the longevity (and few the consistent quality) of this classic. Airing for 20 years, it's TV's longest running prime-time drama (a record that `Law & Order' is currently chasing). Gunsmoke Cast • James Arness : Marshal Matt Dillon • Milburn Stone : Dr. Galen `Doc' Adams • Amanda Blake : Kitty Russell • Dennis Weaver : Chester Goode • Ken Curtis : Festus Haggen • Burt Reynolds : Quint Asper • James Nusser : Louie Pheeters • Charles Seel : Barney Danches • Howard Culver : Howie Culver • Tom Brown : Ed O'Connor • John Harper : Percy Crump • Dabbs Greer : Mr. Jonus • George Selk : Moss Grimmick • Hank Patterson : Hank Miller • Glenn Strange : Sam • Sarah Selby : Ma Smalley • Ted Jordan : Nathan Burke • Roger Ewing : Clayton Thaddeus `Thad' Greenwood • Roy Roberts : Mr. Bodkin • Woody Chamblis : Mr. Lathrop • Buck Taylor : Newly O'Brien • Charles Wagenheim : Halligan • Pat Hingle : Dr. John Chapman • Fran Ryan : Miss Hannah Gunsmoke Credits • Sam Peckinpah : Screenwriter Gunsmoke Directors • Harry Horner : Director Gunsmoke Guest Cast • Aaron Saxon : Basset • Aaron Spelling : Weed Pindle • Abraham Sofaer : Harvey Easter • Adam West : Hall

Dissertation Advisor: Professor Carol J. Oja Samuel Jennings Parler Musical Racialism and Racial Nationalism in Commercial Country Music, 1915-1953 Abstract This dissertation probes the tension between multiracial performance history and discourses of whiteness in commercial country music during its formative decades, the 1920s through the early 1950s. I argue that nonwhites were pivotal in shaping the sounds and institutions of early country music. However, new commercial technologies like radio and audio recording enabled alternative racial meanings by removing the physical presence of the performer. Industry entrepreneurs exploited this fact to profess the music’s whiteness for commercial gain.

  • Music in GUNSMOKE Half-Hour Seasons (Bernard Herrmann, Jerry Goldsmith, Fred Steiner Etc)
    Music in GUNSMOKE Half-Hour Seasons (Bernard Herrmann, Jerry Goldsmith, Fred Steiner etc) PART I [End of Season 2 thru End of Season Five] NOTE: Unless otherwise indicated as another composer, music is by Bernard Herrmann. While I will specifically focus on Herrmann's music, I will nevertheless concentrate on the music of other composers later in the series. It was not until Season Five that original scores were commissioned for the series, starting with "Brother Whelp" (airdate November 7, 1959) by Paul Dunlap. Up to then only CBS Music Library so-called "stock music" was used. http://www.filmscorerundowns.net/other/cbs_collection.pdf As I wrote in my paper on the CBS Collection (see blue link immediately above), much of the music in the early seasons was largely a collection of mood titles or other descriptive names. The music editor(s) would then insert the music as he saw fit. Principal composers then first were Lucien Moraweck (such as CBS cue #312 "Tension on the Trail" muted horn at 21 seconds), Rene Garriguenc, Fred Steiner, Jerry Goldsmith and others, soon followed by early 1957 with Bernard Herrmann. The various suites Herrmann composed (summer 1957) such as Police Force cues, so-called Climax and Indian Suite and Western Saga (etc) did not really begin until the Fall 1957-Spring 1958 season (CBS Library VIII). This would equate in Gunsmoke with its third season. I have no information available that I could find regarding what music was used in Season One of Gunsmoke. Officially the CBS Music Library for television did not really establish itself until the 2nd season (CBS Library VII, 1967-1957 season).
